Nozzles (NZ)

Technical intervention targeting alteration of nozzles or nozzle function along the production line, e.g. by manipulation of nozzle dimensions, alteration of operating pressure or shielding of the nozzle's output stream. How the intervention is to be carried out in detail in the respective factory is to be developed in collaboration with the factory staff. This can include local specific characteristics, specific location of intervention or others.

OTHER

Cleaning of surfaces (CS)

Behavioural or technical intervention. This can include increased use of swabbing instead of flushing with water hoses or alterations in use of water hoses for cleaning. Examples for the latter are a reduced flushing frequency, reduction of number of employees executing the work, alterations of hose dimension or nozzles on hoses. How the intervention is to be carried out in detail in the respective factory is to be developed in collaboration with the factory staff. This can include local specific characteristics, specific location of intervention or others.
