How to improve your office hygiene?

Have a clear desk policy – this means that every employee is responsible for keeping the work station as clear as possible. You should carry out regular checks to make sure this policy is being adhered, as just one dirty desk could be the source of bacteria that infects your whole staff, causing multiple sick days and wasting a great deal of time and money.

Ban eating at desks - food dropped onto keyboards and other equipment is a major source of bacteria. Similarly keeping food in desk drawers can be just as bad, so don’t let it happen. Make sure that any cleaning company you hire disinfects keyboards and other equipment on a regular basis.

Some Fascinating Statistics:

• 82% of people believe they would work harder in a cleaner environment
• 71% of workers believe dirty office spaces have made them ill in the past
• There is 445 times more bacteria on your desk than on your toilet seat
• Disinfecting your desk can remove most germs
• 60% of office illnesses are caused by dirty office surfaces

Is your office as clean as it could be?

An obvious solution is to get a professional cleaning company to maintain office cleanliness to a high standard. This is because a clean office will keep your staff happy, which will reduce the amount of working hours lost each year due to sickness. Keeping your office clean is as important as it is to keep your business dealings in order.
