🌍 Global Handwashing Day — 15 October 2025
Theme: “It might be gloves. It’s always hand hygiene.”

🧼 Why this matters:
Gloves may give a sense of protection, but they are not a substitute for clean hands. Proper hand hygiene (washing with soap and water or using hand sanitizer) remains one of the most effective ways to prevent infections and safeguard public health.

💡 At Proximity Systems, we believe:
Technology + hygiene practices go hand in hand (pun intended 😉).
Sensors, contactless interfaces, and smart systems are powerful only when paired with responsible human behavior.
Every time we integrate touchless solutions, we also reinforce the value of proper hand hygiene.
📣 What you can do today (and every day):
Wash your hands frequently—especially before eating, after restroom use, or after touching surfaces.
Use hand sanitizer when soap & water aren’t available.
Be mindful even when wearing gloves—don’t touch your face, change gloves if they get contaminated, and wash hands after glove removal.
Advocate for clean water & hygiene infrastructure in workplaces, schools, and public spaces.
🔗 Let’s make it personal:
Today, share with us your “hand hygiene promise” — one simple habit you’ll commit to. Use and so we can all lift each other up in this mission.
👉 Because no matter how advanced our systems get, good hygiene is — and always will be — a human responsibility.
