November 19 marks World Toilet Day, a United Nations initiative that highlights that access to safe sanitary facilities is not only a fundamental human right but also a shared responsibility.
Beyond global health and hygiene challenges, this day is an opportunity here in Quebec to consider the quality of restroom maintenance—whether in offices, schools, hospitals, or childcare centers.
A clean restroom is more than a matter of appearances: it reflects the overall effectiveness of a facility’s sanitation program. Research shows that restrooms are often perceived as a mirror of a building’s cleanliness. Unpleasant odors, limescale deposits, or inadequately disinfected surfaces can quickly undermine a facility’s reputation, even if the rest of the building is well maintained.
World Toilet Day reminds us of the importance of:
