One of the biggest outbreaks of Hep B was from a restaurant worker infecting food and passing it along I thought that was Hepatitis A. Both A and B are separate vaccines and both required.

They are separate and work differently. They were not always required but also have not been around that long. Every year my company has a debate about blood borne pathogens and how work place bodily fluids are handled. Every year there is new recommendations from the CDC on what should be done. We have decided that no employee is required or expected to assist a person leaking bodily fluids. Fortunately we have fire and paramedics stationed close by. We could not find a good ground between requiring everyone or just a few to get the vaccinations, mostly due to the side effects.
