          Janitors are hardly seen and very underappreciated. They do the jobs most people do not want to do and rather not be bothered with. Their skill set and knowledge is handy for many situations.

          Janitors take special classes testing their knowledge and understanding of proper process and safety . 

         They also are the first line of defense against germs and bacteria. They regularly fight germs in some of the most dirtiest areas of schools, work place, offices, etc. 

          These people need to be thanked and given more respect than really ever given. Their knowledge of cleaning, safety, and cleaning is a test to their commitment to a job that insures everybody's safety and well being.

    Cleaning employees play a vital role in controlling the spread of bloodborne pathogens, thus reducing the risk of disease in humans. Therefore, they must know and understand what bloodborne pathogens are, the dangers they pose to human health, and how to protect themselves and others who may be at risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens.

    Bloodborne pathogens are disease-causing microorganisms found in blood. Examples of bloodborne pathogens are the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Bloodborne pathogens enter the body through various ways, such as the eyes, nose, mouth, and skin. Without taking the necessary precautions, bloodborne pathogens such as HBV and HIV can potentially infect humans and cause serious or even fatal disease.

    Cleaning employees can protect themselves and others from bloodborne pathogens by following universal protocols, that is, treating blood and other bodily fluids as potentially infectious and acting accordingly. Wearing personal protective equipment including gloves and safety glasses is critical when working around bloodborne pathogens, as is washing hands after coming in contact with potentially infectious materials. Cleaning employees who regularly work around bloodborne pathogens are responsible for cleaning up bodily fluids, removing soiled linens, disinfecting contaminated surfaces, and disposing of hazardous waste such as used needles or other sharps that can puncture the skin and cause infection. Following proper procedures for cleaning, disinfecting, and removing or discarding contaminated items helps keep people safe from bloodborne pathogens and the diseases they cause.

    To know how to implement something, one must know what it is they are implementing. Green cleaning is not Dawn dish soap with lavender scent nor Fabuloso with lemon. It is from the earth for the earth. That includes minimal to no waste, biodegradable products and using glass over plastic. 

    We use micro fiber towels along with steam to clean. One of the best decisions I have personally made. The steam sanitizes and cleans the toughest stains on multiple surfaces. Unlike harsh chemicals you have that nearly chock you in the bathroom.

    There are many reasons to switch to green cleaning proucts. Our company makes and manufatures dietary supplements and health products. It is extremely important to us that our facility and machines being used in the production process are both clean and non hazardess. By switching to green cleaning products we can insure everything is not only clean but isn't going to possibly cross contaminate hazards into our products. 

    It's also great for the environment. All cleaning products eventually end up back into the environment on some level. Causing all sorts of issues. By switching to green cleaning products this will help reduce that exposure to our environment.
