There is a great deal of scientific evidence supporting the positive outcomes of

green clean programs and associated improvements in indoor environmental

quality. Specific regulations and standards for green clean products and programs

exist and have evolved in both Canada and the United States, gaining validity

across North America.

What is the impact of green clean on occupants?

“As Canadians, we spend close to 90% of our time inside; at home, at work and in

recreational environments. Most people, however, are unaware of the effects that

poor indoor air quality can have on their health.”

- Health Canada

Here at BMI we have been using a green clean program for  for over 15 years and it is  part of are every day cleaning programs for our clients 

      When we need a hospital, clinic, urgent care, or healthcare facility, the last thing you expect is to end up sicker than when you arrived. 1 in 20 patients in a health care center come down with an infection brought on by germs or virus in the facility itself.

      With too many different people seeing and treating patients on a daily basis in an average hospital, germs or viruses are sure to be an issue. Due to the increased risk of infection from blood or other organic matter, OSHA maintains strict cleaning standards for all health care facilities. 

     Most germs or viruses are transferred from commonly used surface, tables, chairs, counters, restrooms, etc. Removal of visible matter by hand or machine from surfaces using detergent products and creating a sterile surface to prevent germs from thriving. 

     Human life is so important than everything thats why we have to very careful about the cleanliness of healthy care facilities.

Great Customer Service is key to any business. If the customer is not happy your business will not succeed. Regarding a cleaning business, customer service is everything. When you are being trusted to be in your customer’s homes, they are really placing all their trust in your company. Customer service is not just being kind to your customer or saying yes to whatever the customer wants or says. Customer service is always having and maintaining honest communication, providing the best quality service you can provide, going the extra mile with each customer you have.

Customer service is caring for what your customers cares for, customer service is providing what your customer wants, but most importantly what your customer needs.  Many times, your customer will not know what they need, they may just hire you to do the floors or windows and baseboards. It is good customer service to kindly informed them of the other things in the house that requires immediate attention allowing your customer to make the best decision with the information you provide. Customer service is also guiding your client to what they really need. Respect, Honesty, Reliability, Communication and Caring are part of providing great customer service.

I, Hannah Hollingsworth, have completed the Green Cleaning certification course and have met all of its requirements. Dirty Blonde Painting and Cleaning can proudly state that it is tentatively IJCSA Green Cleaning Certified!

Within my business, I plan to implement a green cleaning routine to encourage my workers and my community to seek out the healthiest and safest cleaning alternatives for their homes. Using EWG's green cleaning guide, and putting my personal knowledge into practice, my goal is to bring safe, efficient, all natural, and green cleaning products into one's space to deliver exceptional cleaning service. I will train anyone that works with me how to research, use, and maintain green cleaning practices that they may be able to incorporate within their own homes.

I will proudly advertise and encourage the use of natural cleaning methods, and sharing and educating those methods with others to create a well-versed community.

You can give Dirty Blonde Painting and Cleaning the "green" thumbs up of approval.

Janitors are vital to everyday life for many reasons. Obviously, they keep things clean and presentable. A clean impression is a good impression for visitors, staff, or anyone who has to be in the environment. It boosts morale and makes people feel good.

Also important is knowledge of germs and preventing sickness. Janitors should know how to prevent cross contamination by not using the same materials that touched a toilet on things like doorknobs.

Lastly janitors’ stock up on supplies before the items are missed. No one wants to use the bathroom only to discover that there’s no toilet paper or the soap has run out. Janitors anticipate these needs so you can enjoy these conveniences without even thinking about it.

I'm sure we have all heard the phrase..."Time is Money"! We can probably all agree that wasting time can definitely cost us money. That is why our job as commercial cleaners are so important. It doesn't matter if we clean for a office, a factory, a studio or a hospital; keeping the work area clean aids in keeping our customers staff healthy by slowing down and/or stopping the spread of illness and viruses around the workplace. If our customers have healthy employees then that helps aid in there companies production because it would minimize calling in due to illness. Having a clean workplace also gives our customers employees a piece of mind that they are in a safe environment, so they will not bring back sickness and illness to there families at the end of the day.

As cleaners we also have to be safe even though we may encounter some messy situations. That is why it is important to know what bloodborne pathogens are and how to keep yourself safe. In our line of work there are many ways that we can come in contact with bloodborne pathogens. If  we are not properly trained to handle those situation exposure can lead to sickness or even death.  If we don't keep a safe clean environment not only can we make ourselves sick but we can put others at risk.

Bloodborne pathogens can be transmitted when blood or bodily fluid from a infected person enters another person's body. But there are precautions that can be put in place to reduce the risk of transmissions. Taking courses to familiarize ourselves will teach all the necessary techniques that we need to know to be compliant with OSHA requirements.
