    In our ever changing environment the concept of a green society makes more sense now than ever. Being proactive exploring ways to implement a Green Cleaning Program to the mainstream, while some may not see the benefits they may experience the consequences. Potentially hazardous chemicals used in everyday homes have become far more dangerous when used improperly. Studies show the basic primary benefits of a green program, begin with selecting products that do not contain environmental contaminants which reduces the ecological footprints. Those chemicals have in a lot of cases end up in our drains which will ultimately enter our public water system. Cleaning practices that take the environment into account, has shown to improve air quality, productivity reducing sick days at the workplace and quality of life in homes.

    According to one recent workplace microbial survey, "desktop surfaces, computer keyboards, mouse and telephone receivers are more contaminated than restroom toilet seats."


    Did you know that the average office toilet seat has approximately 49 germs per square inch? Desktops have almost 21,000 germs per square inch, and phones had more than 25,000 germs per square inch. Desks, phones, computer keyboards and your mouse are germ transfer points because people touch them so often.

    Coughs and sneezes can leave a myriad of viruses that can be lost on these items for up to three days. 

    Enclosed environments, where people are interacting closely with one another, are at a higher risk of the spread of germs. With people often going to work sick, this can quickly lead to outbreaks in workplace settings.

     

     Retro Clean, LLC realizes that our hands are responsible for the spread of 80% of common diseases with proper hand hygiene being recognized as the most cost effective means of infection control in the workplace. 


     "Health promotion or wellness programs have been shown to be effective at reducing absenteeism, health costs, workers compensation claims and turnover but often, forget to address infectious diseases.  Workplace infection control programs focusing on hand hygiene have been found effective at reducing absenteeism on average by around 40 %. An important component of prevention is hand hygiene training and supplies including soap, sanitizer, paper towels and tissues," comments Barry Michaels, an infectious disease expert.


    And with all said isnt it just as important to transfer these same practices to our homes? 


    Experienced cleaning companies can help you fight these germs and help your employees be happy and healthy.

    We are in a service business/industry. Providing good customer service for your clients can be the deciding factor of their return rate and for potential clients, it can be why they chose your service. Customer service encompasses any interaction, online or off, that a customer or potential customer may have with your company — and it includes the entire experience, from initial contact to final sale and beyond.

    Good customer service is different from company to company, but the key characteristics of good customer service include: a rapid response time to service requests, responding to all customer feedback (positive or negative), self-service help documents, and a friction less process for getting in touch with support.

       People may believe bloodborne pathogen cleanup is only necessary in medical settings, but that is not the case. Wherever humans are, bloodborne pathogens could be present. It’s important to treat all blood as if it contains potentially harmful bloodborne pathogens that could cause disease. Proper cleanup methods should always be used to protect yourself and others
     
      Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms carried in the blood, including HIV and hepatitis B and C, that can cause serious, long-term illnesses. They are spread through exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials

    The OSHA standard for bloodborne pathogens applies to manufacturing facilities or any workplace where employees might have job-related contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials.

    The OSHA standard requires workplaces to put an exposure control plan into place, defining roles where exposure might take place and steps that will be taken after an exposure incident.

    Workers can be protected from exposure to bloodborne pathogens using universal precautions, engineering and work practice controls, personal protective equipment (PPE), and housekeeping.
