Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms in human blood that can lead into critical disease and develop Hepatitis B and even human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). 

Cleaning individuals and other personal working with or around bloodborne pathogens should be taking effective training to prevent getting infected and or getting other people expose to transmission in the workplace. 

Effective protective practices and following universal precautions along with proper PPE and protocols is a responsibility everybody must follow to maintain safely working environments. 

Becoming certified in Green Cleaning means that you have a commitment to make toward choosing products that are both good for the planet and a healthier choice for the clients that you work for. When choosing products I personally feel, that I will have that commitment in mind. My company will always have a full line of green cleaning products on hand for any job.

I believe that certain customers acknowledge and believe that they feel green cleaning is the only kind of cleaning that they will choose for their job. Becoming green cleaning certified in todays day and age, as well as actively being green within your business, will gain trust through those customers.

Having at least one full line of green cleaning products makes you competitive in the market, being as there are both commercial and residential clients that will request that only green cleaning products be used on their site. Having a full-line of green cleaning products on hand, means that you are showing the customer that you offer them this option.

Companies that are certified green are easily found and contacted through the IJCSA website. Fine a Green Cleaning expert today at: https://www.ijcsa.org/Green-Cleaning-Services Saving the planet one spray bottle at a time.

Optimum cleaning is extremely excited to be offering Green Cleaning services as a part of it's launch date: March 1st 2021. Green cleaning is an important consideration when handling cleaning tasks both commercial and residential.

Optimum Cleaning will have a focus in providing green cleaning products and having the masters green cleaning certification has allowed for a higher level of knowledge when touting the power and effectiveness of those natural cleaning products to customers. Education of our green cleaning products will be a part of our customer education, so that they know that all of the products that we would be using are just as effective as a product that contains hazardous chemicals; however, that the dangerous fumes and potential detrimental health effects of those cleaning products would not exist.

Helping to encourage customers and other companies to offer green cleaning services is an important step toward the health of the planet. We believe in promotion of green cleaning services to the general public and want to support more sustainable and less harmful practices, including the use of cleaning products containing hazardous chemicals.

It's imperative for cleaning employees and staff to be educated on bloodborne pathogens because anyone can be at risk of being exposed to pathogenic microorganisms. Exposure to pathogenic microorganisms can be life threatening or fatal. These pathogens include HBV, HCV, and HIV which later translates to AIDS.

By law, the employer must provide training to their employees on the dangers of bloodborne pathogens and how to clean blood of surfaces. Employees undergoing bloodborne pathogen training will help the employer make certain the employee understands safety procedures and how to handle hazardous material.

After an employee has been trained, they'll have a better understanding of the concept and will know the employer's responsibilities. The employer must provide personal protective equipment, vaccinations for all hepatitis illnesses, and post exposure treatment.

Bloodborne pathogens knowledge is very important in our lives. We use some of the precautions every time we get sick. For example: When someone gets sick what is the first thing they do, they get medicine and take a nap in some occasion, in other occasions if it is severe they go to the hospital. We follow procedures. 

Anyways, the importance of a bloodborne pathogens knowledge and procedures can save actual lives believe it or not! Take COVID-19 for example. It is said that that it came from a bat but how? A little bite of bat blood someone ate could of caused someone to be contaminated just a little... and now the whole world is sick! 

That is why everyone should do training of all safety procedures and follow all universal precautions when dealing with bloodborne pathogens. One drop of blood can change the entire world. One drop of blood can change your entire life! 

Do you understand? 

In todays day and age it is easier to implement a green cleaning program into a commercial and/or residential cleaning business without breaking the bank. Cleaning products listed as green products have become more easily accessible and have been formulated to be just as effective as non-green commercial cleaning products. 

More people that are seeking cleaning services are looking at the products that those companies are using; by using certified green cleaning products (and/or offering a product line of certified green products for specific jobs) you are showing those customers that you care about the effect your products have on the environment as well as the effects that non-green products may potentially have on your clients health and well-being.

I plan on having a full line of cleaning products in addition to my other full line of products that I use and will allow my customers to choose what product line they would like for me to use based on their preferences and specific needs.

Ask anyone if they clean green and they would probably let you know that they do clean green where they are able to. There are many people that do not know that the chemicals that they believe to be green, actually contain chemical compounds that can be hazardous to the planet and life. Research and effort on the part of the person results in better long-term actions when it comes to cleaning product selection.

The environment is a fragile ecosystem full of life; the balance can be improved or disrupted because of the choices that we as a species make. By choosing to not clean using green products, we are contributing to the deterioration of a very delicate system, where one action can have very serious and unintended consequences. Our choice to clean using green products may not save the planet from every pollutant; however, the choice lightens the pollution footprint and it's a very important choice that can slow down the damage that has been done and continues to be done.

Using harsh chemicals can have negative health repercussions on the individual using them as well as the people that enter that space following the cleaning. Chemicals can cause a number of negative health outcomes including respiratory distress, burns and blindness. In some serious situations, choosing not to use green cleaning products can cause such serious health issues that it could contribute to chronic debilitating conditions such as cancer and other immuno-compromising conditions that contribute toward mortality.

Choosing a green cleaning certified company through the IJCSA Directory is a step in the right direction toward lightening the foot print that we all have on our planet. If your choice is to have a cleaning company that uses only green products on your home or office, find them today through the IJCSA: https://www.ijcsa.org/Green-Cleaning-Services

Nature has equipped our species with many gifts and one of those gifts is to be able to clean effectively using the naturally occurring substances contained therein. When we choose to clean using green products, we are not only ensuring that we remain healthy and safe; we are also ensuring that we are minimizing the damage that we cause our fragile ecosystem.

Using harsh chemicals is polluting the environment and is causing damage cumulatively over time that we will not be able to walk away from in the future. Keeping our footprint light on the earth is of upmost importance because it ensures this planet for future generations of humans and every other species of plants and animals. We can help to secure their future by doing something as small as switching to cleaning with more green products. Continuing to choose to pollute the earth is not something that we should be considering; we should all be looking for appropriate alternatives.
