As previously discussed; going green is not only beneficial for the workplace and public, but for yourself and your close friends and family. The result is nothing but positive not only financially but also environmentally. 

Like I have previously stated, going green may seem to be the latest trend, but it is a trend with a variety of benefits for business owners. Applying green processes to the workplace creates a healthy environment for employees, reduces unnecessary waste and recognizes the role that businesses play in leading the way for social change.

Eliminating the use of hazardous chemicals and implementing environmentally safe products is key to going green.

The first thing I would do when it comes to going green in the workplace is write down a list of items or areas I would like to see improvement. I would start with the basics. I would change all the light bulbs and switch out all the hazardous chemicals we currently use for cleaning and start bringing in natural remedies. Bringing in things like dish soap, vinegar, salt, baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and citrus juices would be the first things to try out. 

Hydrogen peroxide would kill bacteria and be used around windows and door handles etc as a substitute for Lysol. As we are open to the public, instead of using air fresheners which are toxic, I would bring in a diffuser and some essential oils. I would start cleaning from the back to the front, from the floor to the ceiling. Scrubbing the baseboards and trims with a natural mix of dish soap, lemon juice, and coconut oil so while it disinfects  and also polishes.

I would switch out toilet cleaners in the bathroom and use vinegar or bleach. Using baking soda as a paste will help with any stains on tile or porcelain. Purchasing eco friendly toilet paper and towels will also help the earth and maintain the going green way.

I  have a drywall repair and painting company that have found many walls full of mold. I have found disturbing mold and not having a certification in mold remediation made me not to advice my clients correctly. With new viruses and respiratory problems I feel we need to address many mold problems correctly to avoid future problems. 

When performing an inspection for a future or prospective client I would be able to tell them if mold is growing or if  they need to address mold problems. When you face mold you need to take immediate care. Now as a company we will be able to warranty our clients we will follow a process for mold remediation before we do our drywall repair. 

Our goal is to warranty our customers that we are becoming a master of moisture and we can identify and locate mold growth that is not visible to their eyes, documenting, creating a remediation plan and calculating the extend of the mold contamination according to EPA Rules. 

Hello guys. What would the world be if we didn't have people that were trained and certified to deal with cleaning bloodborne pathogen facilities and contents. We would have a world full of diseases. Thanks to the certified cleaners who follow especial guidelines and protocols, we have a more safe world. Thank you. 

Most people don't realize how essential janitors or janitorial staff are to a corporation. Without janitors we would live in a filthy world. Office janitorial services is the best way to keep the office and your employees healthy. Janitors are the first line of defense when it comes to harmful bacteria and viruses in the workplace. 

 Janitorial services are the only thing you need to keep the environment clean, safe, organized, and extremely hygienic. With this, your workplace or business becomes friendly and welcoming. In addition to that, a neat and clean environment will encourage the employees or workers and can attract clients or customers at the same time. You may also enhance the reputation of your business once you impress the customers and clients.

There are several janitorial services that you may take for consideration and these include window cleaning, carpet cleaning, as well as basic office cleaning solutions that can help guarantee that you get a clean place.

Why wouldn't you provide janitorial services in your workplace to ensure the safety of your staff and your clients.

It is essential that cleaning personnel understand the risk and seriousness of the possibility of coming into contact with pathogens- blood or body fluids while cleaning. These risks can make someone very sick or even cause death. Understanding the risks involved will help everyone avoid the illness. 

Employing proper protocols like wearing gloves, goggles, protective wear and even using appropriate technics like: ensuring there isn't a splatter when cleaning, not manually compressing garbage, labelling bags properly to indicate what is in it. It is essential they understand how these pathogens can enter the body so they are precautious.

It is also essential for employees to have this training so that they know to assume all blood or body fluids are infectious. It is also important that they know the procedures they should employ if they believe they may have been affected by pathogens. 

With the full understanding of blood borne pathogens one will aid in making spaces safe for them and others.
