Commercial cleaning services are a real boon to keeping the work environment sanitary and pleasant to work in. Many people spend more time at work than they do at home and are continually exposed to other workers with the likelihood of germs being spread around. It also is a known fact that workers whose work environment is clean and, in a sense, “shinny” will work better with a higher productivity rate. There will be a decrease in the number of sick days as well as an improved attitude toward coming to work. And, unless the work area is small with few workers, the kind of cleaning that needs to be done daily is better handled by a professional cleaning service that comes in each evening following the workday. Most employees don’t take well to having to clean, say, the toilets on a regular basis, and this annoyance alone can cause friction in the workplace. Here is a list of the benefits of hiring a professional cleaning service daily:
- The level of cleaning is guaranteed each day as a professional cleaning service will have standards for cleaning that must be met. And most cleaning services guarantee satisfaction with their work.
- Areas that need cleaning in depth each day, including bathrooms, breakrooms, waiting rooms, and examining rooms, will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Here it is important to note the difference between sanitizing and disinfecting. Sanitizing uses chemicals to kill bacteria on surfaces but does not kill viruses. Disinfecting uses chemicals that will kill both bacteria and viruses on surfaces. The EPS (Environmental Protection Service) registers products that sanitize and those that disinfect.
- Professional cleaning services are able to purchase EPS products that sanitize and disinfect. The availability of chemicals proven to disinfect has become increasingly important since the onset and continuation of COVID.
- Professional cleaning services train their workers on the latest and best products to use and the correct method of using those products.
- By cleaning each evening after the workers have gone allows the entire workspace to be cleaned at once. Even small things like emptying trash cans will be done, leaving a tidy appearance each morning.
- The fact that professional cleaners will be coming in each evening makes it necessary for workers to keep their personal workspace tidy. It is necessary for professional cleaners to be able to disinfect surfaces, so personal workspaces need to be free from clutter.
- The time it takes to properly clean a work environment is much better spent by professionals who know what they are doing, leaving workers free to do their respective jobs.
- Studies have shown that the money invested in using the service of professional cleaners is often less than what it costs to hire temporary workers to fill in for those on sick leave.
- Persons such as clients and customers will feel more comfortable and secure when commercial spaces are clean and disinfected properly. Spaces like bathrooms and waiting rooms are of particular importance, which will be noted by those who use them.
