Training means effective cleaning
Joel Kenny, National Training Coordinator of Kärcher Academy outlines the importance of training to maximise cleaning performance.
Correct cleaning practice is key to the successful completion of any cleaning job to ensure it meets the highest standards. To ensure effective and efficient cleaning, maintaining an up-to-date knowledge of how different cleaning products and machines should be used, when and on what surfaces, is vital. The correct use of cleaning agents and products is key to avoid surface damage and maximise the effectiveness of the clean.
Cleaning is imperative to all businesses for practicality, safety, aesthetics and, in the wake of a global pandemic, its importance has never been more prominent. With growing and ever-changing demands, no cleaning job is the same and every day Kärcher experiences new challenges that require special cleaning solutions. As a market leader in the world of cleaning, Kärcher responds to these challenges through constant development and innovative problem solving.
The increased cleaning demands following the coronavirus pandemic has led many businesses to purchase new cleaning equipment or increase the head count of their cleaning teams to optimise hygiene processes and maintain cleanliness of all working spaces. The introduction of new equipment and staff, as well as the added challenges of ensuring deep cleaning in an efficient manner, make it incredibly important that adequate training is provided to ensure that all staff are trained for their own safety and the general public’s when cleaning public spaces.
The development of the Kärcher Academy, Kärcher’s market-leading training facility, has helped cleaning teams across the UK to stay on top of the latest cleaning methods as part of a continual learning process. The Academy offers the highest quality training, both in person at their facility and virtually through a wide range of online training videos, as well as live customer consultations.
52 | TRAINING & EDUCATION
From refresher courses to beginner courses, the Kärcher Academy has carefully designed every training programme to provide practical instruction for customers, distributors and employees, with all participants receiving a certificate following successful completion of the training in the subject area covered.
Experienced advisors at the Kärcher Academy recognise the increased need for deep cleaning solutions and have developed a range of cleaning solutions for specific target groups based on their needs. Recognising the heightened focus on washroom cleanliness in the pandemic, the Academy has quickly emphasised the importance of washroom cleaning prior to disinfection. The Academy advisors noticed a trend amongst some companies to disinfect washroom surfaces without cleaning first: a process that negates the effectiveness of the disinfectant.
Training needs to evolve as new technological developments, such as rapidly changing surfaces and materials, come into use. Understanding when to use each product and which surfaces they can be used on is a must. It is important to understand both the theory and the practice that goes into cleaning to protect surfaces and avoid damage. The Kärcher Academy do this in small training groups, allowing each participant to receive individual attention so their specific questions can be answered individually.
Maintaining up-to-date and practical training is important for all companies. With new challenges and technological advancements every day, training ensures every worker understands the most effective and efficient methods for the job at hand.
