There is no doubt that implementing commercial cleaning in your workplace can improve workplace safety. Here are the top reasons why:
* A clean and safe workplace is important to comply with the Government Workplace safety standards and regulations If your staff are doing the cleaning in your office you need to be aware that this can lead to a Workers Compensation Claim if anything happens to them while cleaning. Injury can occur when staff are doing simple tasks like using a vacuum cleaner, or if they are using chemical cleaning products. This can lead to huge premiums to business owners for their Workers Compensation. For some businesses this can lead to the Business Owner having to shut the business (it is not uncommon for Insurers to increase premiums by 100%+ because of a claim. No matter how small). Once WorkCover Australia is involved, they may visit your place of business to assess why an injury/accident occurred to a worker. This can also lead to subsequent fines.
* Less staff absenteeism due to sickness In this day and age with diseases such as swine flu, MRSA, Staf infections being so easily transmitted, it is so important for businesses to provide a clean and healthy environment for their staff. Dirt, dust and grime accumulate bacteria which can cause illness to your employees. Not only will they be less productive, but they simply will not be able to come in to work. In the event that a corporate cleaning service is already being utilised, business owners should be aware of the types of cleaning products that the company uses. Cleaning contractors should always use anti-bacterial solutions on places like door knobs and handles, telephones, keyboards and mouses, which are breeding grounds for germs.
* The importance of projecting the right image when customers visit your premises Keeping a clean workplace is important not only to your staff but also to your customers or potential clients who visit. If your place of business looks and feels dirty, chances are people will be less likely to want to deal with you in the future. Furthermore, if your workplace isn't clean, you are exposing your customers to possible pathogens which could even cause them to be ill after a visit to your place of business. By employing an office cleaning service you'll have piece of mind that your business looks and feels clean, always.

Defining a Good Commercial Cleaning Compay
Let's face it. It's happened to everyone of us if we have ever employed a commercial cleaner to take care of our office cleaning or to do our property maintenance. It's just a fact of life and really, it's not a biggie. There are plenty of commercial cleaning companies out there. What is it though that makes one cleaning company better than another? Is it that one has better cleaning techniques than another or is it more to do with the attitude of the staff that they might employ?
It doesn't take much skill for example to push a vacuum cleaner around in a commercial property. Nor does it take much skill to swish a toilet brush around in a bowl. What it does take is the proper attitude. Anyone can vacuum carpet. Anyone can clean a toilet bowl. What sets a lot of good commercial cleaners apart from bad cleaners is their attitude. Let me explain. In all commercial cleaning jobs, to vacuum and clean toilets is a must. If the cleaner has the attitude that near enough is good enough, then they wont last very long in the job.
Their attitude should be that if they get paid to do a specific task, they do it to the best of their abilities and to the standard that is required by the commercial cleaning company as well as the client. I have seen far too many cleaners over the years try and get away with cutting corner after corner in the hope of being able to get away early for whatever reasons. Some have the attitude that 'I don't want to be here, I hate this job'. Well, so be it then. I fired people like that because it ended up costing me money and sometimes the commercial cleaning contract as well. Not worth the price.
A good office cleaning company will always put the client over a lazy cleaner that they might have unfortunately employed.

Saving Your Business Time and Money!
Nobody likes dirty work, especially when it interferes with business. That's why instead of hiring a janitorial cleaning service for your company, handing off duties to hapless employees, or breaking out the mop yourself, you should consider hiring a commercial cleaning service. Professional business cleaning services offer your company flexibility, time and money savings, and reliability so you can get back to work without the worry.
Flexibility is one of the greatest benefits to hiring a commercial building maintenance service. They offer daily, weekly, monthly, and one-time cleaning services depending on your company's needs. You can make adjustments throughout the year as necessary. Slow winter or summer months? You can cut down on cleaning days, saving your company money.
Hiring a commercial janitorial service also has many economical advantages. Having a janitor on the payroll, especially for a smaller business, is extremely costly. There's not only the hourly wages, but insurance, benefits, and sick days to consider. If the office is slow, you can't send a janitor on leave until business picks up again, costing you more money. You don't have the freedom and flexibility to use cleaning services when needed, which will ultimately waste your money, time, and resources.
Many businesses offer such services in inventory and restocking options. Their employees will handle keeping tabs on your supplies and making reorders of such necessary items as paper and hygienic products as well as janitorial tools. No more using the front of your pants as a paper towel or other unpleasant surprises.

Being Clean is In!
Cleanliness is a very important aspect of a business. It plays a vital role when it comes to making first impressions. This is irrespective of whether you are running a restaurant, you are a service provider or a home based operation. Having a business that is neat and clean makes a lot of difference. This is where a commercial cleaning service for your workplace works wonders.
One of the first advantages of hiring a commercial cleaning service is that it works out monetarily in a much better way. If you hire individuals to do the work, you will end up having to spend much more. Also you will end up having to shell out for leave, health benefits and the like. A contractor would do a much better job at a better price.
Some thrifty businessmen feel that they can take on the task of cleaning their office on a weekly basis after office hours. While this may work for a while, you will soon find that this is not a workable project. As your business grows, your attention will be necessary elsewhere and you wouldn't want to be caught with your sleeves rolled up and a mop in hand. Hiring a commercial cleaning service will actually take care of the cleaning in the background allowing you the luxury of time to do work that better deserves your attention. Moreover, commercial cleaning services will have all the necessary equipment and solutions necessary to take care of any cleaning task.
Another area where commercial cleaning services are advantageous is that it saves you from having to invest cleaning materials, which can be very expensive. The money you save here can be put to better use across the company. Since you are charged by the hour, you again pay only for services to the amount that they are used.
