SC Johnson Professional releases handwashing how-to video


SC Johnson Professional®, a total solutions provider for industrial, institutional and healthcare users, has released a handwashing how-to video to celebrate Global Handwashing Day, Oct. 15. The 59-second video features step-by-step instructions on proper techniques for effective handwashing.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), handwashing education can help communities stay healthy by:

  • Reducing the number of people who get sick with diarrhea by 23-40 percent
  • Reducing diarrheal illness in people with weakened immune systems by 58 percent
  • Reducing respiratory illnesses, like colds, in the general population by 16-21 percent
  • Reducing absenteeism due to gastrointestinal illness in schoolchildren by 29-57 percent 

Created in 2008, Global Handwashing Day was created to ‘increase awareness and understanding about the importance of handwashing with soap as an effective and affordable way to prevent diseases and save lives.’
