Why Dont Banks Provide Hand Sanitizer?

Money is one of the dirtiest items we handle. I ask for hand sanitizer every time I'm in the bank. The bank certainly can afford to provide a dispenser or two.
Ideally there should be one at every teller window but even one at the exit door would be welcome .

I don't go the banks anymore and I seldom touch money as we often use cards .. But I always have in my hand bag a small bottle of hand sanitiser or wipes just in case I need to sanitise my hands .

The bank we deal with has sanitizer at the teller windows. It's a small home town bank, not a major world bank. Wonder if that makes a difference or not. I agree, money is dirty. Though I use the sanitizer there, I wash my hands also when I get back home. Have a blessed day

Maybe you could carry a small bottle with you? I use it when traveling on trains.

That's a good idea! Have you brought it up to the bank yet? Told them they need to get some, have it available.

That is a good point. They should put that instead of lollipops.

Pls. tell me the mode of recovering the expenses towards providing sanitizer? Who should pay for it? Customer need not pay. The bank as a business organization can not introduce it.
