thanks - we have just looked at updates on pla template policies which mentioned not using bleach at all so were unsure whether there was any recent guidance that banned bleach from settings, we have always used it at the end of the session and flushed before we open up as you do.

 

May consider rewording the template to state our current practice

we had a conversation with Environmental Health; we were asked what we used to wipe down work tops at end of day (bearing in mind no children go in the kitchen) - we said bleach. Cue sucking in of air through teeth and slight shake of head.

We asked what we should use - he suggested sterilising fluid or hot water/washing up liquid "though that's not the most effective product"

me; "so what's best to use?"

him; "bleach" :blink:

 

have to admit I've ruined a few pairs of trousers/skirts/shoes over the years but you can't beat the reassuring smell of bleach! (only I use it, staff not allowed to)

Sterilising fluid IS bleach, it just seems more expensive! I just put a damp cloth over the top of the bottle of bleach and upend it once or twice and used that to wipe the work tops. I buy the cheapo brand in wilko which is quite good enough for putting down toilets and wiping work tops! I got the coshh sheet from the customer service desk many moons ago
