Maintaining a clean, sanitary workplace is more important than ever. Along with general tidying up on a daily basis, your office should also be deep cleaned regularly. Deep cleaning offers numerous benefits, including improved air quality and reduced illness, which is especially important with flu season right around the corner.
Deep cleaning schedules are not one-size-fits-all. You must look at the needs of your workplace specifically to determine what type of cleaning schedule works for you. More employees mean a lot more mess, which might require deep cleaning on a monthly basis. The same may be true if you host a lost of customers or clients at your establishment.
The type of business also plays a role. With medical facilities, deep cleanings should be scheduled on a more frequent basis as compared to something like a law firm. Aim for at least one deep cleaning per year at a minimum and increase the number if you realize your needs aren’t being adequately met.
Now that you have a better understanding of your cleaning schedule, the next step is to determine what deep cleaning actually entails. No area of your office should be neglected, including light fixtures, ceiling fans, and blinds that are situated far above the ground. Dust can accumulate in these areas and cause sneezing, congestion, and other allergy symptoms.
Next, consider all the surfaces on your office that could be described as “high-touch”. This includes door handles, breakroom counters, computer equipment, copier machines, desks, chairs, and more. Cleaning and sanitizing these areas greatly reduce germ transmission from one worker to another. Breakroom kitchens and bathrooms should receive extra special attention. This includes refrigeration handles, drawer pulls, cabinet hardware, toilet handles, faucets, sinks, and all other areas.
Don’t forget the floor, which also needs a little love during your deep cleaning session. Steam cleaning carpets removes deep-set stains, odors, and allergens, which can become stuck in the carpet fibers over time. If you have bare floors, such as tile or laminate, it should be swept and mopped using the appropriate cleanser for the type of flooring.
