Toilet Standards WHO.(south east asia)
Guidelines on hygiene standards of Thailand’s public toilets are
grouped in three parts. Health/Accessibility/Safety.
----------------------------------
The health part is composed of the hygienic quality of the facilities, e.g. toilet bowls, seats, floor, sinks,
faucets and mirrors. Also important is good ventilation without undesirable odor. Soaps are always available
for hand- washing and there should be regular cleaning and maintenance schedules.
The accessibility part covers the provision of toilets for men and women, elderly people, pregnant
women and disabled or handicapped persons. The facilities must be ready for services at all hours when
establishments are in operation.
The safety part covers safety from accident and crime, e.g. toilets are located conveniently and should
not be in a crime risk spot and separate facilities must be provided for men and women.
The floor must be
dry and lighting facilities adequate.
Main components addressed in public toilet development were
Architecture: Public toilet designs are appropriate, cost effective, user-friendly, simple technology, easy to maintain and look attractive.
Behavior: People practice good personal hygiene and abide by the rules and regulations of keeping the toilets clean
Cleaning: Manpower and other resources for cleaning toilets are available at all times as are soaps,water , tissue, sanitary napkins.
Disposal: The mechanism for disposal of wastes generated within the public toilets is in place and
functioning all the time. People involved in disposal are knowledgeable about the HAS standards and comply with them.
