HEALTH, SAFETY & WELLBEING
welcomed back to the office safely. It is this important role in facilitating the return of workers which means we must begin regarding our cleaning team as essential workers.
Investing in quality In a post-pandemic world, it is also important for businesses to invest in a cleaning team which is knowledgeable and well-versed in the complexities of Covid-related cleaning measures. With 83% of workers seeing hybrid working as their ideal, it is clear that flexible working is going nowhere. This can create many difficulties for Covid safety. With workers sharing desks and coming and going as they please, it is no longer sufficient to rely on pre-pandemic cleaning practices. Adopting a rigorous and continuous approach to cleaning is essential.
Here at OSC, we have adopted a ‘flow-cleaning’ approach throughout the pandemic. This ensures that, as opposed to travelling to rooms to clean them individually, we clean as we go to ensure no high touch points or areas of contamination are missed. Investing in a cleaning team which is knowledgeable in these kinds of adaptations and able to manage the constantly changing guidelines is essential. An experienced cleaning team is an office’s first line of defence against the threat of Covid-19.

Looking to the future The return to the office is a welcome sign for many businesses. However, with daily Covid cases still rising well above 60,000 and the threat of the Omicron variant ongoing, businesses will be keen to future-proof their offices.
“With workers sharing desks and coming and going as they please, it is no longer sufficient to rely on pre-pandemic cleaning practices.”
With 69% of Britons now more concerned about cleanliness and hygiene, it will be a business’ cleaning team which ensures workers remain in the office. An experienced and visible cleaning team will be the key to alleviating workers’ concerns and protecting their health against the threat of Covid. It is this protection of workers and the return to the office which means businesses must regard a knowledgeable cleaning team as essential workers.
