Creating Daily Handwashing Goals 

The following article and video show you how to create daily handwashing goals on your HandScanner

✅ Prerequisites

Before proceeding, confirm you have the following:

  • An active PathSpot account.

  • The appropriate permissions (Admin or Manager roles typically have access to these features).

🛠️Setup Instructions 

Without guidance from a PathSpot support member, we recommend disabling Advanced Shift Scheduling when setting goals (as seen in the video below).

This will allow  you to set daily goals using a simple calculation:
Expected handwashes per person × total working hours per day 🧼✋

In the example shown in the image below, the brand expects one handwash every 1 hour ⏱️, and the total number of working hours per day is 80.

This could represent 8 employees working 8 hours per day, Monday–Friday 🗓️. Think of total working hours as the combined hours worked by all employees for that day.

  • Note that putting 0.5 hours in the handwashes per hour field would equate to 30 minutes

You can deselect certain days ❌ and create unique target goals and time thresholds as needed.

Reporting: All handwashing events, regardless of timing—are stored in your PathSpot dashboard 📊. However, only handwashes that occur within the time frame set on your Goals page will appear in the daily on-screen tracker and in your daily and weekly reporting 📈.

When finished, click Save in the top left corner of the screen 💾.

The save function lets you apply your goals to an individual location, a location group (multiple stores), or individual departments, as shown in the image below
