Monsoon is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful seasons that we witness in our country. This season brings with it a lot of greenery, a pleasant climate, and undisputedly a good feel in general. However, along with these, this season also brings a gamut of infections and communicable diseases like Dengue, Malaria, Zica, Japanese Encephalitis etc.

People who might have inadvertently picked up Microbes while travelling, being in contact or close proximity with infected people automatically becomes carriers of such microbes. These Viruses and Bacteria come from different sources like common touchpoints, indoor air quality, sharing food, washrooms, etc. This is one of the main reasons why employees may fall ill and remain absent from work. This not only affects their efficiency but also the overall operations or business of the organization.
However, all of the above can be curbed to some extent by following infection control measures at the workplace.

Personal Hygiene

This should be strongly followed by every employee of the organization. When personal hygiene is followed, the Germs can be prevented from entering the bodies through the Hands. Having said this, as an employer, you can place Hand Sanitizers at important points of your office space. Besides installing Handwash liquid soaps, and Hand Drying equipment, in the Washrooms, will encourage the adoption of habits of frequent Hand washing like after visiting the washroom, before eating food, after entering the office post-travel, etc.
Feminine hygiene should also be on top of your list when you are considering the overall hygiene of your workplace. Providing Sanitary disposal bins, and Sanitary Pad dispensers are a few of the many options you must have in your workspace.

Ways to Maintain Workplace Hygiene

Wondering how to keep your workspace clean? Here is how…

• Carpet Cleaning: Regular cleaning of Carpets and other Upholstery will help in keeping them free from microbes carried in organic soil matter.
• Sterilization Services:Periodic if not frequent Sterilization of the offices by way of Fumigation through appropriate chemicals or Ozonation should be done to bring down the Bio load in the air & on surfaces.
• The cleaning tools like Mops, Brushes, Cloths, etc should be dried perfectly to prevent the build-up of Bacteria.
• Washroom hygiene: The washroom is yet another place where infection risk is at an all-time high. Choosing toilet seat covers to ensure a hygienic toilet seat after every use is certainly a wise option to consider.
• Clogged drains: Clogged drains are the breeding ground for bacteria leading to serious health issues. The microbes then pose a health threat to the occupants of the workplace by emitting a foul odour. Ensuring to have clog-free drains through regular cleaning will also help in keeping infections at bay.

Small but important steps will take you a long way and help in keeping infections away from your workspace, especially during Monsoons.
