As we approach the flu season, both clients and cleaning companies need to be proactive in ensuring the safety and well-being of everyone involved. At Green Cleaning and Recycling, we understand the importance of preparing for flu season and having alternative solutions in place if our cleaning staff faces illness. Let’s discuss how you can help keep your home germ-free for the safety of our cleaners and explore the steps we’re taking to provide consistent, quality service.

Client Responsibility: Keeping Your Home Germ-Free

To safeguard the health of our cleaning staff and maintain a safe work environment, there are some essential steps that clients can take to reduce the risk of transmitting illnesses in ton: Ifheir homes:

  1. Cleaning and Disinfection: If there has been sickness in the house before our cleaning team arrives, we recommend that clients disinfect high-touch surfaces in their homes, such as doorknobs, light switches, countertops, and bathroom fixtures. This initial cleaning helps to reduce the likelihood of transmission of germs.
  2. Proper Ventilation: Ensure that your home is well-ventilated by opening windows and using fans. Adequate ventilation helps disperse indoor air, reducing the concentration of airborne germs.
  3. Secure Personal Items: Put away personal items, such as toys, clothing, and personal care products, to minimize surface contact. This allows our cleaners to focus on cleaning and disinfecting, rather than moving and handling personal belongings.
  4. Inform Us of Illness: If anyone in your household is feeling unwell or exhibiting flu-like symptoms, please notify us in advance. This information allows us to take extra precautions and reschedule if necessary to protect the health of our staff.

At Green Cleaning and Recycling, we are dedicated to providing exceptional cleaning services, even during flu season. Here are the steps we take to ensure a safe and sanitary cleaning experience for both our clients and staff:

  1. Employee Health and Training: Our cleaning staff undergo regular health screenings, and we prioritize training on health and safety measures. They are instructed to stay home if they exhibit any symptoms of illness.
  2. Sick Leave Policies: We have flexible sick leave policies in place to encourage employees to stay home when they are unwell, reducing the risk of illness transmission within our team.
  3. Alternative Staffing Solutions: In the event that a cleaner is unable to work due to illness, we have backup staff ready to step in. Our clients can rely on us to provide consistent service, even if the primary cleaner is unavailable.
  4. Enhanced Cleaning Protocols: Our cleaning procedures include thorough cleaning followed by disinfection, with a focus on high-touch areas. We use effective, eco-friendly cleaning products that are tough on germs but safe for your home.
