Frequently asked questions

What are the steps of proper hand washing?

Wet your hands with clean running water, apply soap, lather every surface, scrub for at least 20 seconds, rinse, and dry with a clean towel or air dryer.

Can I add when staff must wash their hands?

Yes. List your site’s rules — for example before handling food or after breaks — in the details box and the SOP will include them.

Can I put the video next to the sink?

Yes. Share the video link with your team; a printed QR code next to the sink is a common way to do it.
