    Incorporating green cleaning   

    How I would incorporate green cleaning in my company would be by starting to look for products that a green and environmentally friendly , setting up a plan on how I would clean area and spaces to go beyond cleaning and then when I would get customer call I would recommend green cleaning and i would also explain the benefits of like : not being exposed to hazardous chemicals that can cause health issues. As well to the cost of it being way less expensive than the hazardous chemicals. Also I would explain that all I would be using is environmentally friendly products and won’t harm me or others. It is a better thing to do since we won’t be harming the environment by adding more hazardous chemicals to anything.

    Germs and viruses are very common in the workplace. Think about it. YOu have people who live in all different areas all coming to the same place every day. Then these same people go to different places and live different lives. These people have different levels of hygiene and cleanliness. This all leads to all of the germs/viruses that workers/customers encounter coming to a central location.

    The most common germs/ viruses people have are the flu and the cold. these are easily brought to the workplace. The reason for this is that these germs both survive on hard surfaces for 24 hours or longer. this means that a doorknob or keyboard can be a breeding ground. High touch surfaces become vectors for transmission of germs and viruses in the workplace.

    In order to make sure workplaces are safe the cleaning providers should be IJCSA CERTIFIED . this means that they will all have the proper training to be able to clean and sanitize the workplace. If you dont know how to properly clean that means that germs and viruses will be left behind. The proper training will ensure that everyone is safe, happy, and healthy.Janitorial Service Directory

    The COVID-19 Pandemic has raised awareness for businesses and their cleaning companies to be focused and diligent to prevent the potential spread of pathogenic organisms that can cause disease in humans.  It's pretty clear that medical facilities have to refresh their approach, but in our industry of cleaning offices, warehouses and large distribution centers--there are also some "must-do" precautions that should be implemented by employers.

    Employees must be trained to assume that all people, products and materials should be considered contaminated.  Failure to follow consistent safety practices can be a life or death decision.  First, protective practices begin with cleaners protecting themselves with proper protective equipment (PPE).  This includes eyewear (to prevent splashing, spray, droplets), gloves and footwear.  Also similar to hospital color coding, cleaning staff in warehouses should use color coding of rags and equipment to limit cross-contamination from room to room and client to client.   Proper disposal of trash, rags, towels and gloves is important and disinfecting tools is essential. 

    In our disinfection services, we have found that clients are open to discussion that informs how they can protect their employees and allow cleaners better access to help in the fight.  Simple things like clearing your desk and removing personal items or grouping equipment and supplies for easy access.  Disinfection requires attention to detail of all surfaces that are touched frequently, but includes things touched unconsciously like tops of cubicles,  chair levers, chair backs, drawer handles and buttons on machinery.  An informed workforce partnered with a diligent cleaning company can make both cleaning employees and client's workers safer!

        In today's ever changing climate of infectious disease the need for bloodborne pathogen training with all staff is vitally important. The possibility that staff in any capacity will come in contact with bodily fluids is increasingly high.

        The ability for the staff to have the knowledge for the proper procedures to avoid self and cross contamination is instrumental in preventing the spread of pathogens. Instructing the staff on proper use of PPE to avoid exposure to infectious diseases is paramount to control the spread of all pathogens. 

        Proper use of PPE, containment kits, and reporting protocol is all established with proper training.

    The way we are going to implement medical cleaning into our business always starts with training. If we don't know what we are doing we can't do the proper job. That meant getting the IJCSA certification first. This gave us the foundation to be able to properly do the job. After we have the training next we need to make sure we are using the right tools.

    With the IJCSA training we are taught what chemicals and equipment to use. Therefore we can go online and buy the best possible tools and products to do the job.

    With the correct tools we will be able to use the proper techniques learned in the IJCSA training course. We will know what to use and the purpose of those products.

    Something else that should be known is that we can use the medical training techniques anywhere that we clean. This is because there is the possibility that there is germs or viruses anywhere. There is also the chance of us getting into contact with a bloodborne pathogens. This means that we should treat every cleaning situation the same way that we would treat a medical cleaning situation. This means being attentive and intentional about everything that we do.

    Being aware of germs and viruses keeps everyone safe. Our job as a cleaning company is to remove those germs, dirt, and viruses. If we have the proper training then we can know we are doing it the right way. A clean space is a healthy space. In these current times health is a primary concern for a lot of people and we can help with that goal by doing the best possible sanitation services. Cleanliness is the main factor that determines whether or not people get viruses from germs and therefore we have to treat every situation as a medical situation.

    Janitors and other cleaning staff are important to daily lives because life is messy and it is important to have properly trained people to come in and make sure that everything gets cleaned properly. It takes constant effort and attention to details to keep buildings clean and sanitary.

    Janitors help keep day to day operations flowing smoothly as they work behind the scenes to make sure that everything is properly cleaned and sanitized, and that small, easily overlooked dirt and problems (such as leaky pipes, or broken items) do not get passed up. 

    Janitors keep buildings clean and sanitizes, which helps to keep adults and children safe and healthy. Because they work so hard, they help to minimize the likelihood of people coming in contact with bloodborne pathogens and other infectious diseases. 

    You can find registered cleaners that work hard to keep commercial buildings clean in the Janitorial Directory
