Why workplace hygiene still matters

September 22, 2025
By the Blue Print Editorial Team
What might we see in a post-COVID world? To find out, we spoke with Dr. Stephanie Martin, a researcher at Kimberly-Clark Professional.

Three takeaways 
  1. People now care much more about overall cleanliness and hygiene. 
  2. We've had the mildest flu season in years. Will these new hygiene behaviors stick around? 
  3. COVID is only one illness, but many other pathogens survive on surfaces. What can we do about them?
