Now more than ever cleaning employees and staff must be educated in the subject of bloodborne pathogens. As cleaning professionals we are responsible for the well being of our employees and customers.

The proper handling of bloodborne pathogens can greatly aid in slowing down the spread of infectious diseases such as HBV, HIV, Covid-19 among others.

As cleaning professionals we are very likely to come in contact with needles and though as service oriented individuals, our instinct is to go above and beyond it is important that we do not bend or try to recap needles and that we disposed of all reusable properly until they are processed to be re used.

Taking care of our most important asset which is our staff is extremely important. Therefore we must make sure we are providing our staff with the proper tools such as but not limited to tongs, safety glasses, gloves and masks. Employees must provide all employees that will be handling bloodborne pathogens with the Hepatitis B vaccine.

 I believe that a lot of us are part of this industry because we have a higher calling. We have a purpose and a passion to serve. The more we know about handling bloodborne pathogens the better we will be able to serve that purpose.

It is extremely important that all cleaning staff is aware of the proper procedures for cleaning bloodborne pathogens. There are life altering effects when not properly preforming cleaning duties while working near bloodborne pathogens.

It is important for workers and staff to know about bloodborne pathogens because anyone exposed to them are at risk for serious or life-threatening illnesses. Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms presented in blood that can cause disease in humans.

Workers in a variety of industries should have bloodborne pathogens training. That way, they can understand common pathogens and know how to handle infected materials. Anyone who is at risk of exposure should receive proper training.

We are proud to say at Eco Green Cleaning Inc, we hold strongly two fundamental beliefs. The first is customer satisfaction and the second is to keep our planet safe. Our trained staff of professional cleaners will be certified in green cleaning products because it is important for them to all be knowledgeable with the procedures of a green cleaning company.

For these uncertain times during the pandemic, we will be using the electrostatic spray.  The purpose of this stray is to disinfect the office areas through the use of water droplets as they attack microorganisms.  We will also be using microfiber rags instead of paper towels.  The microfiber towel will help to eliminate the spread of germs and also be friendly to the environment.  Another daily cleaning routine will be to use a product such as Envirox H2 Orange2.  This is a plant-based product that is tough on dirt, germs, and bateria. It is also non-abrasive to employees' skin.

Our green cleaning program is what we stand by.  It’s what we know will be great for the environment as will for human life.  We are proud to be a company that believes in these values.

Selecting the best cleaning products to perform the most efficient job is key. There are many choices on the market, and it is beneficial to know the ingredients in each product so that you are making the best decisions. Some of these products not only cause harm to the environment, they can also cause personal harm.

Everyday cleaning chemicals are known to cause harm.  As reported by numerous reliable sources,there are potentially dangerous health effects from being exposed  to some household products. For instance, the common glass cleaner usually contains isopropyl alcohol.  This chemical is known to cause bodily harm, such as irritation to the skin, eyes, noses, and throat. Additionally, ammonia has an extremely strong order and it is known to cause irritation to the skin and eyes.  It can also cause coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Chlorine is another household chemical .  It is used to create household bleach. Sadly, chlorine is ranked as a top chemical to cause injuries and deaths. As a precaution, products containing chlorine would be avoided and not used. They are extremely toxic and damaging for the environment.

On the other hand, green cleaning products are able to efficiently clean and are not harmful to the environment or to human life. Green cleaning products do not use “chemically-reactive and toxic cleaning products”.  By using green cleaning products, we are able to reduce health risks to life. As a matter of fact some of the benefits of using green cleaning products include being biodegradable and being gentle and non-abrasive to not only the surfaces you are cleaning but also to contact on skin. 

There are many benefits of using green cleaning products as opposed to everyday cleaning chemical products.  These benefits are not only good for the environment, they are also good for life.  To learn more about green cleaning products and how they can be beneficial to your business, be sure to get certified. 

Envirox H2 Orange2 is a great product! It is a plant-based product that’s made of cold-pressed orange oil.  It works well on many kinds of surfaces. It cleans and gives stainless steel an unbelievable shine. It gets the grime out of wood and marble floors.  I highly recommend it!

There are many cleaning products that are on the market today.  However, my company strongly believes in using green cleaning products. Our mission is about maintaining a safe and healthy environment. Green cleaning products are well equip with their main ingredients to perform an outstanding job without the harshness of chemicals. For instance, the specific enzymes that are in the products are equally tough on dirt and eliminates bacteria and viruses. This is especially important during these troubling times of the different variants of COVID.

Also, green cleaning products are safe for the environment, human, and animal contact.  The products are generally plant-base, which makes them biodegradable. Many people and their pets have allergic reactions to harsh chemicals, and green cleaning products are hypo-allergenic and toxic-free. This makes them safe not only for the environment, but also for human and animal contact.

Viral-Safe BioSecurity is proud to announce that we are certified Green cleaners. We will be implementing new strategies to comply with, and assure, our clients that we are bringing the best Green Cleaning technology to work for them. 

No harsh chemicals or bleaches. We will only use chemicals that biodegrade to harmless substances. We currently use these chemicals. We do not use paper towels or other wasteful materials. We utilize reusable microfiber cloths and Green plastic spray bottles. 

We have also invested in a steam cleaner to reduce the need for volatile compounds to remove stains and sanitize upholstery, drapery, and carpets. We are committed to a Green cleaning philosophy and look forward to serving our environmentally conscious customers.

Environmental concerns are prevent in today's society. As science and research have advanced, we have learned of the dangers of many substances. Lead used to be in paint and many other products. We now know its harmful. It's the same with many cleaning products.

We used to use many caustic and acidic agents to clean different surfaces. Lye was one such chemical. Contact with skin caused instant burns. Even everyday bleach, if not used properly, can be extremely dangerous to health. It can also damage wood cabinets, stain upholstery and carpets, and produce harmful vapor if mixed with ammonia containing products.

We have moved away from these types of agents in favor of natural, or new chemicals that are not nearly as problematic. Our disinfectant, chlorine dioxide, is one such agent. In high concentrations it could be dangerous, but it is against Federal law to sell products at that concentration.

The concentration used at our company is so gentle you can wash your hands in it. We use it in foggers and ectrostatic sprayers. Respiratory protection isn't required but we like to be as safe as possible. It can even be used directly on upholstery and carpets without staining. It can be used on pet bedding and children's play areas.

The chemical is a disinfectant, sanitizer, stain remover, mold and mildew remover/inhibitor, and removes allergens from the home. It's extremely versatile and breaks down to harmless table salt after being applied and exposed to the environment. We continually search for greener alternative but what we use meets all our needs as well as protects our customers and the environment.

As an Operations Manager, one of my duties is to constantly surveil the cleaning landscape for new products. I have shifted the company to a green, environmentally friendly service. We research each and every product we use to ensure it meets our standards. We even try to investigate whether it is manufactured in an environmentally responsible way. 

Environmentalism is the wave of the future. Being responsible for the health and well being of the environment is our responsibility. We need to stay ahead of the curve and continue implementing environmentally friendly policies at our businesses.
