Why Hire an IJCSA RCS Certified Cleaner?

23 Aug 2024 12:07 PM | Jarvis Coburn

When it comes to maintaining a clean and healthy home, many individuals choose to hire a cleaning person or a professional cleaning company. However, not all cleaning services or cleaners are created equal. One way to ensure that you are hiring a qualified and reliable service is by looking for those that have passed the International Janitorial Cleaning Services Association (IJCSA ) Residential Cleaning Specialist (RCS) certification. This certification is a mark of excellence in the cleaning industry, and it brings several key advantages for homeowners.

One of the most significant advantages of hiring a cleaning service with IJCSA RCS certification is the expertise and professional training that comes with it. To achieve certification, cleaning personnel must undergo a training program that includes training on a wide range of cleaning techniques, products, and safety measures. This background ensures that staff are knowledgeable about effective cleaning practices and can handle various situations with competence. Homeowners can feel confident knowing that their cleaning service has the qualifications needed to provide a high standard of cleanliness.

Another key advantage of hiring a certified cleaning company is their commitment to health and safety protocols. IJCSA RCS-certified professionals are trained not only in cleaning techniques but also in the safe handling of chemicals and proper cleaning methods that minimize health risks. They must complete training on bloodborne diseases and chemical hazards, as well as general safety guidelines. This focus helps avoid potential hazards and issues, but it also leads to a cleaner, safer living environment, alleviating concerns related to exposure to harmful substances.

RCS certified cleaning professionals also recognize the importance of customer service. To achieve the RCS certification, cleaners must also complete mandatory customer service training. This may not be the first thing on your mind when hiring a cleaner, but its very important for the entire cleaning experience. Communication and trust are absolutely critical to ensure that your needs are taken care of in the way that you want, without worry. The ability to customize service to your needs will increase overall satisfaction with the service provided.

Speaking of trust, there is nothing more essential when allowing someone into your home. By hiring an IJCSA RCS certified professional, you're ensuring a certain level of rigor and verification about who you're hiring. The commitment necessary to complete the certification signifies that those professionals are serious about the business of cleaning, and likely don't have some other motive in mind. Certified cleaners also learn about and adhere to professional standards and ethical practices, including OSHA regulations and other laws, ensuring that they respect your home and belongings. Knowing that the individuals entering your home are trained, certified, and vetted allows for a worry-free cleaning experience, allowing you to focus on your day-to-day life rather than cleaning chores.

In conclusion, hiring a cleaning professional or company that has passed the IJCSA RCS certification offers peace of mind and quality assurance. The certifying body sets high standards that members must maintain, meaning clients can expect consistent results. When you hire a certified cleaning service, you are investing in quality, reliability, and peace of mind, knowing your home is in capable hands. If you are considering hiring help for your home cleaning needs, look for IJCSA RCS certification as a mark of quality and excellence.
