The right office cleaning company can increase productivity. When you realize the advantages of keeping a clean, well maintained office environment, it’s likely to become a passion.
According to Entrepreneur.com “when the office environment is actually clean, your efficiency will increase because then everything works just the way it should, contributing to better results.”
The standard of cleaning in your office impacts the general satisfaction of employees. And work satisfaction is, after all, a necessary part of optimizing and improving productivity.
Hygiene and cleanliness are not the same thing. Your office could appear to be clean yet still be a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses.
When the office environment is actually clean, efficiency will increase because only then is everything working the way it should. Your efficiency and productivity will improve because fewer employees will be calling in sick or working at a lower capacity.
When an office cleaning company uses “smart office cleaning strategies” there will be minimal disturbance or downtime to your work flow and you will have a cleaner office at a lower cost. Minimal disturbance means less downtime and better efficiency for every department in the company. Read more

It can be quite a challenge finding the right commercial cleaning services in BC, for your needs.
There are so many small, less than credible cleaning companies that are here one day and gone the next. Unless you ask the right questions you never know if you made a mistake until it’s too late.
You want a commercial cleaning service that will perform to a standard that you will be happy with…consistently. You don’t want to worry about security and problems from employees that were injured on the job. That shouldn’t be your problem, but it can be if the commercial janitorial service you hire isn’t set up professionally. Read more

Proper office cleaning techniques can have a huge impact on productivity. On average, employees lose nine days of work every year due to sickness. In addition, consider the days people are feeling drained and starting to get sick, but still come to work.
Some of this can definitely be avoided by making sure the office cleaning staff know where to clean and use Eco-friendly cleaning materials.
A typical office keyboard is a great place for bacteria to grow and propagate. Studies have shown that a computer keyboard can carry up to 7,500 bacteria at any given time.
Viruses such as the flu can linger on unclean surfaces such as work desks, doorknobs, photocopiers, and other shared electronic equipment for 24 hours.
60% of absences from work illnesses are contracted from dirty equipment in the office such as e-coli, staph, and bacteria.
A whopping 25,127 germs per square inch were found on just a telephone.
It’s normal for an office janitorial company to clean walls, floors, and windows, but quite often, cubicle walls get forgotten.
Over time, cubicle walls get scuffed up and unsightly. If they are made of fabric, cubicle walls become a breeding ground for bacteria, germs, and viruses.
One thing you might not have thought of is dust mites. People associate dust mites with germs that grow in your bedding where they thrive on consuming dead skin cells.
Dead dust mites, their body parts, and fecal matter are known to cause allergies, asthma, headaches, runny nose, trouble breathing, watery and itchy eyes, sneezing, and other immunological health problems. Read more

City of Kelowna
“Evergreen Building Maintenance has provided janitorial services for our Park Washrooms for the past 15 years. Park washrooms in the mid 1990’s were a significant problem for the City and we used to receive hundreds of complaints per year. Today, Evergreen provides excellent service for our Park washrooms and we have also received compliments for the cleanliness of our park washrooms during significant park events. The number of complaints we receive are minimal and often not a result of the janitorial services from Evergreen. I am very satisfied with our contractor and I hope that our relationship will continue in the future.”

Detailed Cleaning Routines For Consistent, Quality Cleaning
Every office has different requirements. Our office cleaning services in Kamloops team manager will go through your office with you and develop a cleaning routine checklist. This makes sure we clean everything that needs cleaning, every time.
You can change the routing any time, but we do monthly inspections to make sure everything looks good even though it may not be on the checklist.
Example Of A Typical Office Cleaning Checklist:
DAILY CLEANING
Your reception area represents your customer’s first impression. You want it to always be bright, clean and inviting. Every individual needs a clean work environment. A well organized and clean workplace helps to make everyone more productive.
Cleaning tasks for the reception area and office spaces include:
Empty waste receptacles and replace liners. Wash as needed.
Clear the clutter – Recycle, throw it away or put it back where it belongs. Use zip ties to keep cords coiled and organized.
Vacuum all upholstery, carpets and mats
Vacuum all hard floors
Dust all horizontal surfaces of desks, chairs, tables and other furniture
Wipe dust from common areas with a damp rag or paper towel. Use compressed air to remove dust from hard-to-reach places like your keyboard crevices. Don’t forget light fixtures and fan blades.
Damp wipe all horizontal surfaces with disinfectant
Mop all hard floors with disinfectant
Clear the cobwebs – Use a rag to remove cobwebs from every corner of the office. Put the rag on a broom handle for those high, hard-to-reach corners.
Remove fingerprints and marks from around light switches and door frames
Clean automatic glass doors inside and out
Wipe all internal glass
Spray a towel with glass cleaner and wipe away smudges. Give the computer monitors a wipe, too. Who doesn’t love a smudge-free monitor?
Polish all brass and bright work on doors and cabinets
Spot clean walls and painted surfaces
Collect all garbage, papers, bottles etc. from front entrance
Ensure all areas are clean & arranged neatly
Kitchen/Break Room
It is imperative that a kitchen or break room where employees eat be clean and sanitary even if no food preparation is done there.
Disinfect – Hit all hard surfaces with sanitizing spray and a clean rag. Pay attention to high-germ areas like the vending machines, microwave, fridge handle, and water fountain buttons.
Empty the fridge – Throw away old food and drinks to create more space. Perhaps this is a good time to establish some fridge rules; no one likes to find two-week old takeout.
Wipe-down kitchenware – Clean cups, plates and appliances with warm water and soap. Take a few minutes to organize the cabinets.
Daily Washroom Cleaning
A clean and sanitized washroom is a must in any working environment to ensure safety and reduce the risk of spreading germs.
