Since the COVID pandemic, more people are focused on cleanliness than ever before. It has become essential to focus on sanitising and disinfecting in office spaces, helping to reduce the transfer of germs and bacteria.

The Sloane Cleaning team have received extensive training on the correct procedures and products to use in order to sanitise and disinfect office spaces, as we know that cleaning is not enough. High traffic areas, work desks, and work spaces, need to be cleaned and disinfected to help reduce the spread of viruses, while helping to improve the overall health of your employees.

Desk Cleaning

Our team will clear the desk where possible, giving it a good dusting and cleaning, before using our chosen disinfectant to sanitise the area. Various items will be sanitised, including pens, scissors, calculators, phones, and other items. Each item is wiped down with care.

Once the desk is clean, our team will focus on regular touch surfaces, this includes fans, lights, and switches in the office. Each one is dusted, cleaned and then disinfected.

Workspace Cleaning

Often there are items in your office you didn't realise should be sanitised and disinfected. With ongoing training and a good understanding of sanitisation, our teams will clean:

Office Chairs

Before the chair can be cleaned and sanitised, our teams need to identify what material the chair is made of. They start by vacuuming the seat of the chair to remove dust and debris. Once clean, they will clean and sanitise the arms of the chair. Some false leather chairs are wiped down and sanitised, based on the manufacturer's instructions. If the chair does not allow wet cleaning, the team will vacuum the chair and wipe it down with a dry cloth to remove all dust and dirt.

Electronics

Outer surfaces of electronics are wiped down using a damp microfibre cloth and then disinfected:

How Often Should I Sanitise and Disinfect My Office Spaces?

If your staff sit at their desks all day, every day, then you will want to ensure their desks are cleaned and sanitised at least once a week. Cleaning and disinfecting office spaces can be incorporated with our regular cleaning schedule.

Conclusion

The main reason why employees ended up working remotely during the pandemic, was that heavy foot traffic in office spaces resulted in germs building up. As a result, it is essential to keep your office spaces clean and hygienic at all times. With regular office cleaning that includes cleaning and disinfecting, it reduces the risk of transferring germs and viruses between employees.

With regular cleaning and disinfecting, it helps to reduce staff sick days, saving you time and money in the long run, along with boosting employee morale, and improving productivity.
