The foolowing is the sign we have on our freezer containing Moms' milk:

“Whereas universal precautions DO NOT APPLY to human breast milk, gloves may 
be worn by health care workers in situations where exposures to breast milk 
might be frequent, for example in breast milk banking.”
Centers for Disease Control. MMWR 1988; 37:377-82

“Contact with breast milk does not constitute on occupational exposure risk 
as defined by OSHA standards.”
Committee on Pediatric AIDS, AAP. Pediatrics 1995; 96:977-79
