Being a Sensitive issue, we all know that working with co-workers especially in close proximity such as in an office, can present its own unique challenges.
OFFICE
Dry mouth = bad breath, so hydrate or chew gum
Brush teeth after eating
Re-apply deodorant during the day
Hand washing and the use of hand sanitizers as a protection against the spread of illnesses
HINT: If a hygiene issue is brought to your attention, it is best to first release a company memo reminding all employees that there are certain expectations in the workplace regarding personal hygiene. This will help to prevent an employee from being or feeling singled out or lead to bullying. As an alternative, hygiene awareness posters can also help ease any awkwardness.
