When it comes to workplace safety and staying healthy, look no further than your own workstation. Office workers and call center agents spend nearly half their waking hours at their workstation. Telephones, keyboards and computer mice are especially germ-ridden, which leads to the spread of colds and flu around the workplace. And unbelievably, headsets can harbor germs for years!
According to a revealing study by University of Arizona microbiologist Dr. Charles Gerba, office workers who were told to clean their desks with disinfecting wipes reduced bacterial levels by 99%. View University of Arizona Research Study Highlights.
Workplace desks dirtier than a toilet seat?
According to an article published in the Chicago Tribune, those of us who eat lunch while working at our computer would be better off dining on a toilet seat. Sound distasteful? The problem is that most people don™t clean their workstations and equipment with any frequency. Adding to the germ build-up is the fact that office equipment may be shared by multiple users.
