Modern offices today have embraced hybrid workspaces, enabling employees to work from home and at the office. As businesses continue to adapt to this new working model, the importance of cleanliness cannot be overstated.
Clean workspaces ensures employee well-being and safety, boosting productivity and morale.
A clean workspace both in a hybrid office and a home office includes:
The Importance of Cleanliness in Employee Well-Being
A clean workspace has a major impact on employee well-being:
Regular cleaning reduces the spread of germs and illnesses, reducing absenteeism, and contributing to employee well-being
Clean workspaces improve focus, helping employees make better decisions, enhancing creativity
We have put together some useful strategies you can incorporate to ensure your hybrid office is clean and hygienic:
Regular scheduled cleaning ensures all areas are clean and free of any hazards. This includes cleaning and disinfecting any high touch surfaces, such as shared equipment, keyboards, telephones, door handles, and lift buttons.
In the hybrid office environment, employees come and go throughout the day, using desks that were just used by another employee. As a result, we recommend that employees are encouraged to participate in cleaning their workspaces before leaving, having it ready for the next employee. This ensures employees take personal responsibility for their workspaces.
We recommend that you create a culture of cleanliness in the workplace. Owners and managers should lead by example, ensuring their workstations are clean and tidy, encouraging employees to do the same. Communicate the importance of cleanliness with employees, along with providing tips, cleaning products, and supplies.
A great idea is to rewarding employees that maintain a clean and organised workspace, fostering a culture surrounding cleanliness, where it is a priority.
