Prepping Your Workplace For Cold And Flu Season!

Cold and flu season is here!

Cold and flu season can lead to increased staff absence, reduced productivity and added pressure on colleagues covering for those who are unwell.

While professional cleaning can’t prevent every illness, regular commercial cleaning helps maintain a cleaner, more hygienic workplace by giving high-touch surfaces and shared areas the attention they need.

For employers, office managers and Directors, this shouldn’t mean adding another job to an already long list.

At Coxhead Cleaning Services, that’s exactly what we’re here to do.

It’s more than emptying bins and vacuuming floors!

Good commercial cleaning goes far beyond making an office look tidy.

During cold and flu season, particular attention needs to be given to the areas that employees and visitors touch throughout the day.

Door handles, light switches, taps, shared kitchen appliances, desks, meeting areas, stair rails and other high-touch surfaces can easily be overlooked during a quick tidy-up.

With professional commercial cleaners looking after your premises, these areas can be incorporated into a regular, structured cleaning routine.

Giving high-touch areas the attention they need!

Some of the most frequently touched surfaces in a workplace aren’t necessarily the most obvious.

Think about:

  • Door handles and push plates

  • Light switches

  • Stair rails and lift buttons

  • Shared telephones and equipment

  • Kitchen worktops and appliances

  • Kettles, coffee machines and fridge handles

  • Toilets and taps

  • Meeting-room tables and chairs

  • Reception areas

A regular cleaning team can help!

One of the biggest advantages of employing commercial cleaners is consistency.

Instead of waiting until the workplace looks dirty, cleaning takes place according to an agreed schedule.

That means everyday dirt and grime are dealt with routinely, high-use areas receive regular attention and deeper cleaning can be planned when required.

During cold and flu season, your cleaning programme can also be reviewed to determine whether particularly busy areas would benefit from more frequent attention.

A cleaner workplace, means a nicer environment!

Managing a business already involves enough responsibilities.

Trying to coordinate cleaning between employees, keeping track of supplies and making sure every communal space has been properly cleaned creates unnecessary work, particularly during the busy autumn and winter months.

Outsourcing your workplace cleaning gives you one less thing to manage.

A professional commercial cleaning company can create a cleaning programme around your premises, working hours and requirements, whether you operate an office, commercial premises or another busy working environment.

Get your workplace ready for winter!

You can’t eliminate every cough, cold or case of flu from a workplace. But you can make sure your premises are being cleaned thoroughly and consistently throughout the season.

With Coxhead Cleaning Services, you don’t need to hand employees a cleaning checklist or hope somebody remembers to wipe down the communal kitchen.

Leave the cleaning to the professionals.

Our commercial cleaning team can take care of the day-to-day cleaning your workplace needs, with particular attention given to busy communal areas and frequently touched surfaces.
