Hygiene Services
Personal Hygiene Services & Environmental Hygiene Services
The average life expectancy for our human race has drastically increased this last century – in the UK this has increased from 56 years for a man and 60 years for a woman – to now 79 and 83 respectively. A major contributor to this is our increased knowledge and experience of the effects of good hygiene – be that in personal hygiene or in environmental hygiene.
At Green Circle Direct our network of expert, registered service providers address each one of these requirements with a sustainable solution. All have been selected due to their sustainability credentials.
Throughout the human & social wellbeing journey – from conception through to dying –
our bodies produce natural by-products. When dealing with medical concerns such as illness, injuries and infections these products are supplemented by medicines or toxins such as antibiotics and dressings. Governments, agencies and World bodies such as the World Health Organisation offer both guidance and instruction on how to keep our employees, customers and ourselves safe through effective hygiene practice and procedures including both the safe removal and disposal of waste from hygiene by-products and effective cleaning and sanitation processes .
They are all committed to zero to landfill, focusing on resource recovery and endeavour to provide sound ecological solutions to waste disposal, whilst being fully compliant with clinical and offensive waste regulations. They offer water and energy saving solutions within the washroom environment. They all support the eradication of Modern Day Slavery in their supply chains, whilst performing with maximum efficiency with minimum environmental damage – including their vehicle energy usage and route planning.
Your Legal Obligations & Duty of Care
In the UK all businesses have a duty of care to their employees. They must adhere to legislation, including that involving Hygiene – with the Global Pandemic of Covid19 highlighting this like never before.
Green Circle Direct is here to help, with our options for washroom hygiene servicing allowing you to provide a discrete, professional and safe washroom environment for personal hygiene.
Never more has it been so obvious that deep cleaning and rigorous sanitation are critical to human wellbeing – but this must be a balanced approach with both the use of water and chemicals regulated and sensitive to our environmental requirements.
Businesses need to be able to provide washroom facilities with a suitable method for disposing of sanitary waste (this means not flushing it away as it can damage sewers and drains). There is a “Duty of Care obligation on organisations that produce controlled waste which includes sanitary waste. This can seem like a minefield for such a “non-core” activity of the organisation – it’s the loos for goodness sake!
Organisations in the UK must comply with three Acts / Regulations which commonly take place with washroom activities. These are “The Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulation (1992)”, “The Water Industries Act (1991)” and “The Environmental Protection Act (1990)”. In addition, following the publication of several initiatives by “The Resources and Waste Strategy commission” in February 2019, responses and potential implications of the initiatives are being worked through within various stakeholder groups and are likely to bolster the already rigorous legislation in place.
We service all business sizes and types
We service all business sizes and types, particularly specialising in those supporting human & social wellbeing and provide the legal paperwork such as waste transfer notes to prove the safe disposal of all sorts of waste – all included – with no hidden charges.
We provide and service all of the legally required waste receptacles (bins to you and me!) , as required to dispose of all of your waste.
Regardless of how much waste you have, a service can be arranged with a suitable, convenient collection schedule.
Businesses must hygienically dispose of waste using a legally compliant service. Different types of waste have different regulations regarding their safe collection and disposal – such as Healthcare and Clinical waste, Recycling, Hygiene and Offensive Waste, Food waste , Hazardous Waste and so on.
