Spring Cleaning isn't just for the Home…

Erin Meyer • March 28, 2013

It’s that time of the year again, the snow is melting, the grass is greening and flowers are beginning to peep out and with winter finally departing, the ritual of spring cleaning is upon us. While we are busily tackling our home spring cleaning, we must also attend to our office Office Cleaning spring cleaning as well.

A clean office is just as important as a clean home and if you calculate how many hours you and your employees spend at the office it is clear how important this cleaning can be for everyone concerned.

In addition, many research studies show that a clean, well organized office environment will pay off greatly in productivity and employee morale. To kick off your spring cleaning here are some tips to help you out.

Encourage and promote safe and healthy habits around the office. According to a 2012 study 47% of working adults eat lunch at their desks. This is a problem because most work stations have 400 times more dangerous bacteria then the average public toilet. To combat this danger and minimize risks, an employer should encourage hand washing and keep the office well supplied with foaming hand soup and paper towels. There should also be a supply of sanitizing wipes for employee use throughout the day. High touch points such as door handles, light switches and other surfaces need to be cleaned and sanitized including all surfaces of your break room.

Clean your computer stations with caution. Computer work stations can be difficult to clean because they are heavily used and likely to collect lots of dust and dirt. Using the wrong products and procedures can cause costly damage. Used compressed air to remove dirt on keyboards and towers and clean monitors with wipes approved for LCD screens. Don’t forget to dust your computer mouse and speakers.

Don’t forget floor cleaning and restoration as part of your spring cleaning ritual.

Remove grime and dirt from office floors and carpets. You are likely to have an accumulation of dirt and residue left over from the winter traffic on all your office floor areas.
A professional cleaning service will provide a deep cleaning followed by regular vacuuming and spot removal.
Placing floor mats in strategic places is also a good way to keep dirt and grime from entering the office. This is also a good time to replace or upgrade your mats.

School restrooms can often be overlooked and taken for granted, but they are a vital part of the educational experience. From providing a safe and comfortable space for students to take care of their hygiene needs to create a sense of community, school restrooms play an important role in the daily lives of students. In this blog post, we'll discuss the importance of school restrooms, the challenges they face, and some ways to improve them. As mentioned, school restrooms are an essential part of a student's day. Not only do they serve a practical purpose, but they also help create a sense of community. By providing a safe space for students to take care of their needs, restrooms are an important part of fostering a sense of security. Unfortunately, school restrooms are often neglected and suffer from a lack of resources and maintenance. This can lead to dirty and even dangerous restrooms that can cause health problems for students. Often times students communicate the need to wait until they get home to use the restroom. This can be because the restrooms are dirty, lack of toilet tissue or paper towel, or fixtures are broken or inoperable. Fortunately, there are some simple ways to improve school restrooms and create a safe and comfortable environment for students. One way to improve the restroom experience is to be sure the restrooms are regularly cleaned and maintained. This includes ensuring that all facilities are in working order and that any issues are addressed in a timely manner. In addition, the restrooms should be stocked with adequate supplies, such as soap and toilet paper. Ultimately, school restrooms are an important part of the educational experience and should be given the attention they deserve. By implementing these simple steps, schools can create a safe and comfortable environment for their students.
