Safety Showers vs Hygiene Showers
Everything You Need to Know
When it comes to workplace safety, guidelines around hazardous substances and decontamination can often lack clarity.
Many regulations call for ‘hygiene facilities’ or ‘washing stations,’ but these broad terms can lead to a false sense of security. In reality, standard sinks and showers may not provide the rapid, thorough decontamination needed if there's a chemical spill or splash. Without the right emergency equipment, workers remain at risk of serious injury.
In workplaces where hazardous substances can cause severe irritation or harm to the skin or eyes, there’s no substitute for a professionally installed safety shower or eye/face wash station.
