We sanitize today at short notice in the case of confirmed cases of Corona or as part of how to manage the risk of infection in the workplace, such as disinfection between shifts or completed passes.

When we receive a request to carry out cleaning at a new customer, we always ask if it is clean and clean where we are going to carry out the cleaning and explain that we can disinfect even if it is dirty, the agent we use kills the Coronavirus after about 30 seconds of contact time, but if the premises were dirty before, it will be just as dirty after.

This is really nothing strange, a high standard of hygiene also prevents other infections and an important reason why we clean and clean workplaces in the first place is to ensure that the workplace is healthy.

Facilitate compliance with hygiene procedures

In order for as many people as possible to comply with a good hygienic standard, it is important to make it as simple as possible, so that it becomes part of the daily routine.
When hygiene items such as hand sanitizer, surface disinfection etc. are purchased, it is good to think carefully to be able to ensure that it is as easy as possible for everyone in the workplace to be able to comply with good hygiene standards.

Be sure to set up information so that it is easy for everyone, employees and visitors to know what is important, it often says “We follow the recommendations of the Public Health Agency” wherever you go today, but it is not as often stated what recommendations are being followed and what is being done to make it easy to comply with those recommendations.

A tip is to inform not only that “We follow the recommendations of the Public Health Agency” but what it means specifically for the activity concerned and what specific measures/recommendations are followed.
