As plant managers work to maximize output and reduce interruptions, hygiene often gets treated as a compliance checkbox. But with the right strategy, it becomes a performance tool — one that keeps employees healthy, equipment clean, and operations running without unnecessary stops.
Mike Kapalko, Industrial Segment Manager for the Tork brand at Essity, shares quick, high-impact ways to make hygiene a part of your operational edge:
- Place smarter, not more: Ensure wipers and cleaning tools are available exactly where they’re needed — reducing time lost to searching or walking across the floor.
- Train for resilience: Make hygiene part of your ongoing workforce training to build a culture of safety and accountability.
- Audit ahead of the rush: Replenish and restock now — especially before high-traffic events like shift changes or seasonal production spikes.
