A Clean Workplace = Happy Employees

The health of your company depends largely on the productivity and happiness of your employees. So how do you make sure that everyone is putting their best foot forward in representation of your business? Providing them a well taken care of and consistently clean workplace is a great start. When you hire a professional to aid in the maintenance of your office building, you will know you are getting the best for your money when the following areas have been covered.

RESTROOM: Toilets will be wiped down including the top of the seat, under the rim, around the bowl and the back of the tank. Seats will be left up after cleaning. Mirrors, faucets and stainless steal soap dispensers should be wiped down, usually with a microfiber cloth and glass cleaner. There should be no visible spots or streaks.

TRASH: You should find no trash in or around trash cans or under the desks. Receptacles should be returned to their proper places with new liners in them and all chairs will be pushed up to the desks. Keep in mind that unless you have specifically marked something as trash it will be untouched.

MOPPING: All areas should be well mopped. This is usually done by starting with the edges of the room first and then using a figure-eight pattern to fill in the rest of the open area. Wet Floor signs should be placed appropriately.

VACCUMING:  All carpets should be vacuumed starting from the furthest corner of the room and working toward the door. Wet floor signs may be placed if there was any spot cleaner used on the carpet. All cloth furniture will have been given a once-over with the vacuum’s hand tool, special attention being paid to the corners.

EXTRAS: All furniture should have been dusted using furniture polish and a special cloth. As well you can expect that all door handles, light switches and telephone handsets have been disinfected.
