WHAT’S THAT SMELL? NO-ONE’S GOING TO TELL YOU!

Survey Shows Most Americans Unwilling To Tell Colleagues if They Stink

White Plains, NY, July 20 --- A new nationwide survey shows just how embarrassing body odors can be. Commissioned by Odor-Eaters® brand and conducted by Harris Interactive, the survey asked which of the three main body odors breath, underarm or foot people would feel most comfortable telling a colleague they had. More than half (59%) of Americans said they would not feel comfortable telling a colleague if they had any kind of body odor. Twenty percent said they would tell a colleague if he or she had bad breath; 12% said they would comment on underarm odor, and only nine percent said they’d tell someone if they had smelly feet. With approximately one in three Americans suffering from foot odor and wetness, smelly feet are a common occurrence, but still, no one wants to talk about it.

Clearly personal hygiene is something we need to pay close attention to in the workplace especially in these days of windowless offices, tiny cubicles and political correctness because people are simply not willing to tell us when we smell!
