Office cleaning is always important, but more so now
Office cleaning is always an important task for Charlotte, NC businesses. But, with the spread of the newly discovered coronavirus, or COVID-19, keeping homes, offices, even ourselves, clean has taken on new importance. Below, we offer tips from the CDC to help you keep your office clean and to help prevent the spread of the virus in your office.
- Clean more frequently. Before, you may have cleaned your office after closing or before opening. Now, it is important to do office cleaning a little more frequently throughout the day. Take some time in the morning, afternoon, and evening to wipe down surfaces, especially in common areas, in your office.
- Wear gloves when you clean. The team you have designated to handle office cleanings should be sure to wear gloves while doing so. Once your team has finished cleaning, they need to make sure to dispose of the gloves properly then wash their hands thoroughly using soap and water.
- Keep employee work stations clean. When up to them, many employees may not really clean their work stations regularly, and they aren’t always something that is a part of general office cleaning tasks. Make sure employees have access to appropriate cleaning supplies so they can keep their desks, computers, keyboards, and phones, wiped down and as germ free as possible.
- Don’t shake out dirty laundry. Offices with shared kitchens, gyms, and bathrooms, often have towels on hand for employees and guests to use. These are often put into a hamper for washing by office cleaning companies later. Make sure these are washed regularly following the instructions listed on your detergent. Be sure to not shake out the towels as you sort them for laundering as this can shake germs into the air.
- Reach out for help. Most state health departments have additional information and guidelines posted on their website. Don’t hesitate to look for more office cleaning guidance from reputable sources and reach out if you have questions.
