Personnel hygiene
Compliance with personnel hygiene is a prerequisite for safe health protection.
What is personnel hygiene
Personnel hygiene has two main areas defined by the legislator. One area is consumer protection and the other area is the protection of your employees.
A hygiene instruction is a training or briefing that informs individuals how to act and behave hygienically in specific situations and environments in order to minimize the spread of infections and diseases.
Hygiene instructions can be relevant for various areas, such as working in hospitals or other healthcare facilities, food production, or working in public transportation. Typically, hygiene instructions convey basic principles of hygiene, such as handwashing, proper cleaning of surfaces and objects, correct use of protective clothing, and behavior when experiencing symptoms of illness.
The employer is obligated to comply with certain conditions. Providing hygiene products and ensuring that the provided hygiene products are used correctly are important aspects of personnel hygiene.
Providing hygiene products
- There are different types of soap, including liquid soap, foam soap, and solid soap. Choose a form that meets the needs of the users and the facility.
- Disposable paper towels are a common type of hygiene product used in various environments to enable easy and hygienic cleaning or hand drying.
- Disposable gloves are important hygiene products used in various environments to ensure protection against contamination and the transmission of diseases.
- Head coverings or hygiene products for the head, especially in certain work environments, serve to meet hygiene and safety standards.
- Disinfectants are hygiene products used to kill or inactivate microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi on surfaces or hands.
- Hand care hygiene products include a variety of products designed to support cleanliness, hygiene, and care of the hands.
- etc.
Informing / Instructing
- When informing and instructing users about the use of hygiene products, it is important to provide clear and understandable instructions.
- A hygiene instruction involves training employees or individuals on the proper use of hygiene products to maintain a hygienic environment.
- Infection training is a training or briefing that informs individuals, particularly in specific professions or areas of activity, about infectious diseases, hygiene measures, and the handling of hygiene products.
Hygiene instruction is important to ensure the health and safety of employees as well as customers or patients and to minimize the risk of infections and outbreaks. In many areas, regular hygiene instruction is legally required.
