Today's business world is fast-paced and it's easy to overlook how important office cleanliness is. Maintaining a clean and tidy office isn't only about appearance, it impacts employee health, overall well-being, morale and productivity.
When your office is cleaned on a regular basis, it offers numerous benefits that cannot be ignored, including:
How frequently you clean your office is usually determined on the office size and the number of employees. Small offices with less than five employees can usually get away with a weekly clean, as long as everyone chips in to maintain the cleanliness throughout the week, where larger offices can benefit with daily cleaning, due to high traffic volumes.
When you regularly clean high-touch surfaces such as shared office equipment, light switches, and door handles, you reduce the risk of spreading germs and bacteria. With regular cleaning, these surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, reducing the risk of spreading illness, reducing staff absenteeism.
In a busy office environment with everyone bustling around to meet deadlines, it's not uncommon for workstations to become messy. With regular cleaning, desks are kept clean, improving the overall appearance within the office, boosting productivity. With a clean desk, employees are able to focus effectively.
When your office is cleaned regularly, the waste is disposed of correctly, preventing odours and maintaining a clean office space. We encourage our clients to use recycling bins to reduce their impact on the environment, aligning with their green policies.
Clean washrooms are essential to the overall health of your employees. Washrooms should be cleaned, disinfected, and restocked with essentials including toilet paper, hand soap, and paper towels.
The frequency of your office cleaning does directly impact office cleanliness. If you don't have your office cleaned regularly, dust, dirt, allergens, bacteria, and germs can quickly build up. This can increase employee absenteeism, give a bad impression on visitors, and reduce staff productivity and morale.
