Points with high contact
As hand washing is one of the most effective defence measures, employers must ensure that workers have easy access to washing facilities and that these are well equipped with soap and (ideally) paper towels.
Workers should follow these five steps each time they wash their hands:
- Moisten their hands with clean, running water (hot or cold), turn off the tap and apply soap
- Lather hands by rubbing them together with soap. Lather the back of the hand, between the fingers and under the nails.
- Wash hands for at least 20 seconds.
