Skin and surface hygiene specialist, GOJO Industries-Europe is advocating making hand hygiene second nature to everyone on Global Handwashing Day (Tuesday 15 October 2019).
The annual worldwide advocacy day is dedicated to increasing awareness and understanding about the importance of handwashing. The campaign ultimately helps to influence behaviour change and encourage healthy hand hygiene. Inequalities in handwashing facilities can put individuals at higher risk to diseases that impact their health, education, and economic outcomes.
Chris Wakefield, vice president, European Marketing & Product Development, GOJO Industries-Europe, said: “We are a strong advocate of the ‘total solution’ approach to making hand hygiene second nature to everyone. By educating about the importance of hand hygiene, and teaching best practice techniques, we can help reduce diseases and save lives. ‘Clean Hands for All’ will help achieve ‘Health for All’.”
