We all want a clean and tidy office, as it’s so much more conducive to a productive working environment. Here are our hints and tips to getting the best from your cleaners.
Nail down a schedule. Make sure that everyone knows what your expectations with relation to the cleaning. List the tasks that you want doing and how often you expect these to be done, whether daily, weekly or monthly as well as those things you want done on an ad hoc basis. Print the list off and give it to the cleaner or cleaning company so that there is no doubt as to what the expectations are.
Implement a clear desk policy in the office. It’s much easier if the cleaner doesn’t have to clean round great piles of paperwork. It’s also good practise to ensure valuable client files are locked up over night.
Start recycling! Save the environment and keep your office tidy at the same time. Have designated bins for paper, cans and secure waste to be shredded. Generally companies will charge you less for dealing with sorted recycling waste.
Try not to let the washing up pile up until the cleaner comes in. Your cleaner’s time will be much better spent actually cleaning your kitchen rather than doing a week’s supply of coffee cups.
Read your contract with your cleaner or cleaning company and ensure that everything you have discussed is in writing.
Consider the best time to have your cleaners in the office as they will be able to work more effectively if there is no one in the office. If you’re concerned about sensitive information ensure that you schedule them for when there are the fewest people in the office.
Try and be realistic. We all want immaculate offices, but this might not be realistic on a couple of hours a week. Reserve their services for the most time consuming jobs or difficult chores, or increase the regularity of their cleaning schedule.
