Every office manager would like to keep their premises clean, but pressures of time can often lead to this job getting sidelined. What are the advantages of hiring a professional office cleaning service?
Staff morale
First, if you hire a cleaning service, you will notice an immediate improvement in the morale of your employees. Dust, grime and clutter can build up gradually and your staff may not even notice just how much the quality of their work environment has deteriorated, but it will be there at the back of their minds, and they are likely to feel undervalued as a result. Once the office has been thoroughly cleaned and is kept that way regularly, your employees will value themselves and their work much more highly and will try harder to live up to the well-maintained environment in which they find themselves.
Customers
Similarly, nothing can put off a potential client as much as a dirty and untidy office can. No matter what they think of your business and products, they will feel that if you can't be bothered to look after yourself, you won't put any effort into looking after your customers. Think about the kind of people you would like to do business with yourself; surely you would prefer those who work in a clean and presentable environment. By not keeping your premises clean, you are handing a huge advantage to your competitors who do.
Health and safety
A clean office is a healthy office. Businesses that make cleaning a priority are rewarded by lower levels of absenteeism and sick leave. It is not always obvious where harmful germs are building up — even the office telephone can be a breeding ground for bacteria if it is not regularly cleaned. A cleaning service will know which parts of the office can lead to the spread of illness and disease and will remove the risk.
Time
Do you expect your staff to do the cleaning themselves? If so, you might want to ask yourself what they could be doing instead. If your sales team is having to clean the office, they are not making sales. Leave them to do the jobs for which they have been trained, and let a professional cleaner do the rest.
Cleaning is a vital job that requires specialist knowledge and skills. Call in the professionals, and you will see many benefits for your business.
