Routine and deep cleaning is essential to occupant health in every workplace, commercial building, school, college, and facility. We spend almost a third of our time at work and you will be impacted by that environment throughout your life. From allergies to communicable diseases to mold, regular cleaning is paramount to preventing workplace illness from affecting your employees and your bottom line.

Pre-pandemic, we understood the importance of workplace cleaning, but perhaps not every business took it as seriously as they should have. Today, everyone is hyper-focused on workplace cleanliness, which is a positive outcome of the otherwise terrible last few years.

Having a clean workplace is important to all building employees. Supreme Maintenance Organization provides:

• Janitorial Services
• Deep Cleaning Services
• Disinfecting Services
• Day Porters

• And much more!

Importance of Employee Health

Sick employees either aren't available to work or are limited in their ability to perform their duties while at work. They also put others at risk of illness. If a flu or COVID outbreak occurs in your facility, not only will your productivity plummet, you will need to invest in an emergency disinfecting service before you can reopen.

Proper cleaning will reduce the number of sick days your employees need and will boost you productivity. Healthy employees are also happy employees. Routine janitorial services will also reduce the level of allergens in your workplace that can trigger asthma or hay fever.

The Value of a Clean Workplace

Cleaning is essential to occupant health because it prevents illness in the workplace, which boosts employee morale and production. But what is the true value of a clean workplace? After all, investing in janitorial services is an expense that must be justified by ROI.

According to the ISSA, the leading trade association for the cleaning industry, here are some statistics about routine cleaning:

• 80% reduced probability of catching the common cold or influenza
• 62% reduction in surface contamination throughout the workplace
• 46% reduction in employee absenteeism
• 94% people would avoid a business in the future if they encounter a dirty restroom
• 2-8% gain in productivity
• $125,000 in savings in a 100-person office with an average salary of $25,000

Protect the Wellbeing of Your Employees with Routine Cleaning

It has been shown that the mere presence of a day porter in an office made employees more comfortable and happier at work. It is important not to underestimate the value routine cleaning has on your productivity and bottom line. Your employees deserve to be protected in the workplace from colds, influenza, COVID-19, and other irritants and illnesses. The proof is in the numbers that a modest investment in janitorial services has a high rate of return for your facility.
