Office cleaning is more important than ever
Office cleaning is more important than ever in Charlotte, NC and across the globe. The coronavirus pandemic, has made keeping your home, office, car, and every space you occupy, more important than ever. Keeping things clean and disinfected can help slow or stop the spread of the virus and keep your employees and customers healthy.
Keeping things clean
The CDC has issued guidelines for office cleanings that will help curb the spread of the virus. This includes not only cleaning high touch areas, but disinfecting them as well.
High touch areas should be a part of your office cleanings always, but especially now. High touch areas include doorknobs, which are often missed, as well as handles on appliances, water fountains and handrails in the office. Things your employees touch at their desk, such as keyboards and phones, should also be sanitized regularly.
To keep these high touch areas sanitized, the CDC recommends taking extra steps to clean. This involves not only cleaning to remove dust and other debris from areas, but sanitizing them as well. If you use an office cleaning service, don’t hesitate to ask how they sanitize your high touch areas as part of their cleaning services. They should be using an EPA registered disinfectant to clean.
Daily cleaning guidelines may change
Though office cleaning does its best to keep your office clean, employees may handle some tasks themselves throughout the day. Make sure you establish cleaning procedures for your employees including wearing gloves and properly disposing of them.
Combining personal hygiene with office cleaning
Office cleaning can only do so much to help stop the spread of the virus in your office. Employees can take steps to protect themselves at work, and at home, as well. The most important thing they can do is wash their hands regularly. The CDC recommends washing your hands with warm water for at least 20 seconds whenever people go out or use the restroom.
Many offices are adopting other practices such as forgoing handshakes and going online for large meetings. By combining office cleaning with personal hygiene practices, you can feel confident you are doing everything you can to combat the spread of the coronavirus in your office.
