WHAT’S NEW?
By enabling and encouraging good hand and surface hygiene practices at each of these moments, facility owners and managers can help break the chain of infection.
Bloomfield commented: “Having worked to introduce the concept of Targeted Hygiene at home with the 9 Moments for Home Hygiene, we realised that creating a similar concept for ‘away from home’ environments provides the means to develop effective hygiene to prevent spread of COVID in public spaces.
“In the current climate especially, it is hoped that the ‘8 Moments for Targeted Hygiene’ will help to drive behaviour change around hand and surface hygiene. This approach is designed to prompt people to recognise the moments of risk when targeted hygiene is called for, rather than giving them a written set of ‘rules’ about when to act, which they may or may not remember.”
Targeted hygiene actions include both good hand hygiene practice, through the use of hand sanitisers and hand washing to kill or remove pathogens that may be present on the skin, along with frequent disinfection of commonly touched surfaces.
The SC Johnson Professional Targeted Hygiene Programme
To help facility managers and

owners manage the risk of infection transmission, SC Johnson Professional has applied its extensive expertise in hand and surface hygiene to develop the Targeted Hygiene Programme, which combines essential hygiene products with impactful education. This forms a simple, practical approach to helping improve hygiene practice in workplaces and public facilities.
The programme starts with a site survey conducted by an SC Johnson Professional hygiene expert to identify where the moments of highest risk of infection transmission are likely to occur in a facility. The result of the survey enables facility managers to determine the appropriate hand and surface hygiene infrastructure required to drive behaviour change and to help break the chain of infection.

All users of the programme benefit from SC Johnson Professional’s high-quality, trusted Deb Skin Care hand hygiene systems and trusted and recognised Mr Muscle and Duck surface hygiene products, supported by extensive educational materials - including videos, information sheets, signage and posters - designed for training staff and maintaining awareness amongst all facility users.

Professional, added: “As a company, we have many years’ of experience working in a variety of sectors to help improve hand and surface hygiene compliance. Our fundamental purpose is the same: to improve hygiene behaviour and to help reduce the spread of potentially harmful infections.
“However, whilst the recent COVID-19 pandemic has heightened awareness that hand and surface hygiene is essential, helping to break the chain of infection can only be achieved in combination with social distance and facial coverings, and by enabling the right products to be used at the point of need, combined with frequent hygienic cleaning of high risk surfaces. This then needs to be fully supported by facility managers, and the right behaviours encouraged for the safety of all users of their facility.”
The current and post-pandemic climate calls for a new approach to hygiene – one supported by science and evidence – to help break the chain of infection. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has shown the scale of risk, alongside the potential consequences, if our collective approach to hygiene is not improved with better, more focussed behaviours taken at the right moments.
