    It is very important for employees to know about Blood Pathogens. The first thing that employees must know is the definition of the term "Blood Pathogens." The reason that they must know what the definition for this term is so employees can realize the dangers that come along with Blood Pathogens. “Blood Pathogen defined are pathogenic microorganisms that are present in human blood and can cause disease in humans. These pathogens include, but are not limited to, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) (associated with AIDS).  Knowing the diseases that are associated with blood pathogens makes employees take more caution when working with them and will make sure they make no mistakes when it comes to understanding Blood pathogens. 

    Next,  Employees must know how blood pathogens can spread. Blood pathogens are spread through bodily fluids such as blood, vomit, and saliva. The way that these pathogens are able to enter someones bodies are through mucus membranes such as the nose or mouth.  Blood Pathogens can also enter the body through an open wound. It is very important for all employees to know this information so they can make sure they are wearing the right equipment when cleaning so they do not obtain or spread blood pathogens.

    Lastly, All this information is important for employees to know so they do not make any mistakes when working. Knowing the dangers and the precautions you must take when working with blood pathogens will reduce any harm that can be caused. Employees will know to wear protective apparel at all time and never do anything like eat or drink in an area that contains blood pathogens because that can cause serious harm to them or worst of all their co-workers.

    I plan to implement a division of Mold Cleaning to my business by further investigation and additional certification. I would like to find someone locally who may be willing to mentor me. I believe the benefits will be abundant in my community. There aren't many companies around here that offer mold remediation, so it would be a nice thing to offer my clientele.

    Some additional benefits, would be to have a more knowledgeable, serious minded team. Additional specialty training is very important to building a strong team. I believe our clients will appreciate all of our knowledge in addition to our established high quality cleaning.

    much to the detriment of the user and environment.

    DID YOU KNOW: Environmentalists estimate that an average household's

    cleaning products contribute about 8% of total non-vehicular emissions of

    organic compounds, which not only pollute the air, but also cause eye,

    nose, and lung irritation, as well as rashes, headaches, nausea, asthma,

    and, in some cases, cancer.

    There are many cleaning companies that promote “green cleaning

    services”, and most are forth coming in really admitting to the fact that the

    products are labeled green products; however, if one were to really probe

    into the everyday practices of these “green cleaning” companies it would be

    found that there is,“green washing” being performed in homes and

    businesses.

    Not so, with IJCSA Certified Green Cleaning Companies. The cleaning

    companies that are located in our directory have been tested, tried, and true

    to what the certification entails: knowledge of VOCs, better natural cleaning

    practices, and E.P.A. accountability for our actions toward the environment.

    If you or your company is looking for a true Green Cleaning Company look

    The world has been bombarded with so many environmentally damaging

    products and chemicals that major companies like SC Johnson have taken

    note to the benefits of helping to employ a green cleaning program for

    families and companies. With the introduction of more “green cleaning”

    products like, Method, Mrs. Myers, and Seventh Generation this will help

    environmentally conscience individuals make a better choice for their

    companies and families. Thus, helping to reduce the carbon footprint many

    of us have been leaving behind.

    Going green with cleaning will also help businesses to save money as well

    as improving safety standards for employees, which boost productivity and

    attendance. Having a green cleaning program is the safest, most cost

    effective, healthiest way to tackle any cleaning job, whether residential or

    commercial.

    Proper Bloodborne Pathogen training is vital to any and all janitorial companies since there is a high probability that a team member will find themselves addressing a situation involving potentially infectious bodily fluids.

    A properly trained team member will be in a position to recognize the inherent risks involved with possible exposures, the proper Personal Protective Equipment needed to safely perform the work,  required reporting, and proper disposal of dangerous or contaminated items.   Maintaining proper safety guidelines will ensure that your staff and customers remain healthy and safe.  Proper training will also ensure compliance with safety regulations and limit liability for failing to properly train team members.

    Bloodborne pathogen training should be considered a starting point to the long road of continued training fro both employers and employees.   Protecting the health of one's team members should be the priority for any reputable business owner or supervisor!
