6 Tips to Stay Hygiene Focused

Keeping hygiene front and center is important. These six tips will keep your staff hygiene focused every day as you make plans to implement new cleaning and disinfecting protocols and health screening procedures, you also need to think about what comes next.

Keeping Hygienes Front and Center

Here are six tips to help you focus on hygiene every day

  1. Designate a hygiene captain on every cleaning shift to ensure that protocols are being implemented correctly.
  2. Establish a cross-functional Hygiene Steering Committee. Hold meetings on a regular basis and consider asking tenants, employees and other key stakeholders to join.
  3. Promote good hygiene habits by providing instructions on proper hand hygiene techniques and respiratory etiquette for coughs and sneezes. Hygiene tools available in various sizes, and also customizable.
  4. Set calendar reminders for daily, weekly and monthly cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting activities.
  5. Evaluate the frequency and effectiveness of your cleaning protocols post reopening, including whether you have the right tools and sufficient inventory.
  6. Consider ongoing tenant or occupant outreach activities. Communication is key (consider the template on the next page to help with planning).
Be sure to:
  • Provide frequent updates on building hygiene initiatives.
  • Remind occupants about the investments you’re making in their well-being and ask for suggestions on ways to improve.
  • Reinforce employee and visitor wellness and hygiene protocols.
  • Host events to remind tenants and building occupants about proper hygiene habits.
  • Stay in touch with peers, industry associations and organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention & World Health Organization to stay informed about health recommendations and information
