Regularly washing your hands is an easy and effective ways to prevent the spread of germs & bacteria. Think of how many times a door handle, card machines and money are touched in a day. These items are often overlooked from a hygiene perspective and probably only get wiped when they are physically dirty.  

 

Follow these five steps for effective hygiene.
