What is safe hygiene and how can it help to prevent infection?

This course summarises key concepts and mandatory standards of safe hygiene in your daily business operation and whenever you offer services to tourists.

The COVID-19 virus is spread directly from an infected person to another person. Be aware, that infected persons might not show COVID-19 symptoms and not be aware of their infection!

COVID-19 can also spread by touching contaminated surfaces or objects and then touching one’s nose, eyes or mouth. Here, studies have shown that the COVID-19 virus can survive on surfaces for several days!

The most efficient way to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus via contaminated surfaces or objects is to implement strict measures of safe hygiene:

• Possibly contaminated surfaces and objects must regularly be cleaned and sterilised.

• The frequency of people touching surfaces and items or getting in contact with them should be reduced as much as possible.
