Specifically with handwashing which is a problem I have been very successful at solving, time is not the main factor. It is wear and tear on the hands and this comes down to the soap used and water quality, really. If you get those too things right people mostly find it no problem to wash their hands when appropriate. Also for non-medical people this is not washing your hands before surgery washing, this is routine washing between patients, bathrooms, and duties.

Regarding gloves, gloves don't solve disease transmission from dirty hands. You need both hand washing and gloves.
