Infections prevention techniques in a workplace
Infection is caused by a variety of pathogens such as virus, bacteria, protozoa and fungi that get into your body and multiply.
Infections control in the workplace begins by assuming that everyone is potentially infectious, because the workplace is a major source of infections over which you have very little control.
The most important way to reduce the spread of infections is hand washing :- always wash regularly with soap and water. Other good practices to slow the spread of infections are:-
1. Always keep the workplace clean
2. Manage your body contact with your colleagues very well, especially if you or they are sick.
3. Use a tissue, or cough and sneeze into your arm, not your hand. Turn away from other people.
4. If working with children, have them play with hard surface toys that can be easily cleaned.
5. Do not touch your eyes, nose or mouth (viruses can transfer from your hands and into the body)
6. Do not share cups, glasses, or cutlery.
7. Door handles, particularly toilet doors, entry doors and internal office doors are sources of infections that you may not be aware of, use a paper towel or open the door with your little finger or use hand sanitizer after handling the doors.
