Each Lid will be sprayed with a disinfectant and sanitized before replacement of the liners.

Entire Bin removal:

Removal of the entire bin if contaminated will be at the discretion of the hygiene supervisor. An appropriate calculation of frequency will be applied and recommended accordingly in relation to the number of ladies likely to make use of the sanitary bin.
