make all urban restaurants require hand sanitizer dispensers built into their tables.

Created by M.G. on January 25, 2013

I believe that all urban restaurants should be required to have built in hand sanitizer dispensers in their tables for several reasons.

1. It promotes proper hygiene. It is much easier to walk into a restaurant, sit down, and wash your hands, rather than walk into the public restroom all the way across the restaurant.

2. It allows for faster cleaning. I get mad about going to public restrooms to wash my hands because there are so many people waiting to do the same thing. This discourages me from washing my hands.

3. It is an easier way to help the environment. The hand sanitizer will cut the use of paper towels and water, creating healthier restaurants.

I understand that the hand sanitizer may fall into peoples food. Dishes should be installed to catch loose droplets for this reason.
