It's imperative that we as employers give our employees the tools they need to succeed but foremost to ensure their safety! One measure of this in the Custodial industry is to ensure that employees are aware of how to identify hazards, safety protocols and how to handle those issues at hand.  

Training is key in educating our employees for safety. Having a proper training plan in place along with a certification program will give them the  knowledge they need to succeed in their position and their safety goals.

Preparing your team with the proper protocols and proper PPE will ensure that they are prepared for any clean up necessary. These last two years have brought much change to the industry and we as professionals need to adapt as the times change. Keeping up with best practices and our ever evolving PPE and equipment is so important to ensure everyone's safety.

There are so many aspects of bloodborne safety that it's difficult to summarize in its entirety. These few aspects that stood out to me are basic but to me are some of the most important. I would hope that each leader in this industry would take the time to educate themselves a bit more on safety. My goal is to ensure each and everyone of my employees have the knowledge and tools to stay healthy and happy!
