Although everyday life has mostly returned to normal post-COVID-19, many companies continue to have their employees work from home for part of the working week. It is important to ensure you consider office cleaning for a hybrid workforce.
Hybrid working, with employees coming and going on different days, can mean more challenges for employers regarding office cleaning. For example, an employer has two teams, and one team works Monday and Tuesday in the office and the other Wednesday and Thursday. In that case, a professional cleaning company should thoroughly clean the office space on a Tuesday evening, so it is fresh and clean for the second team arriving on Wednesday morning. Whilst this is just one example of successfully achieving office cleaning for a hybrid workforce, it will vary from business to business depending on how their employees and teams work.
Being able to tell employees about the measures you’re taking to ensure the desk they sit at has been hygienically cleaned since the last person used it shows your commitment to employee health and wellbeing. If you have employees who are unsure about returning to the office, it can help them feel more comfortable if they know you are using a professional cleaning company with a specific cleaning schedule to keep everything as hygienic and safe as possible.
There should also be clear guidelines to employees for any cleaning you expect them to undertake in between professional cleaning. This might include wiping down the table they’ve used to eat their lunch in the break room or using hand sanitiser regularly to prevent the spread of germs and diseases.
