Some industries face a higher risk of communicable diseases. These include education, healthcare, and hospital facilities. Therefore, each sector usually follows specific rules for sanitization and disinfection.
To prevent the spread of infections, staff should clean and disinfect high-touch and high-traffic areas more often. In addition, regular cleaning helps protect employees, patients, students, customers, and visitors.
Frequently touched surfaces include:
- Doorknobs and door handles
- Faucets
- Handrails
- Light switches
As a result, proper cleaning and disinfection can reduce germs and create a safer environment.
