We’ve all had a lot more reason to be concerned with how we handle both waste and general dirt in the workplace as of late. If people weren’t taking hygiene seriously before, they are now. If you’re reopening your office, then you might find that a deep clean and much stronger hygiene routine is in order from now on. Here, we’re going to look at the options you should be considering.​

From top to bottom
A lot of businesses are looking at reopening for the first time in months. Others are realising that they produce a lot more waste than they can typically get rid of, which can lead to it piling up and taking up storage space. Consider skip bin hire    to get all the accumulating waste out of your office in one-go. This should be done as part of a comprehensive spring cleaning throughout the office, as you’re likely to find even more waste to add to the pile as you go through the workplace room by room and bit by bit.

Make it routine
A lot of business owners might think that they only need to invest in cleaning the office when it’s visibly dirty. However, dirt, dust, and grime can build up while you’re not looking and, even before you can see it, it can affect air quality, hygiene, and all manner of other health concerns. Outsourcing your cleaning can help you ensure you manage to fit the necessary provisions into your routine if you’re not able to take care of it yourself.

Help your team find peace of mind
Your employees are going to want to feel safe in the workplace, which means that a focus on making hygiene accessible must be put in place. First of all, make it a policy for team members to follow certain rules, such as using hand sanitizer and washing their hands after sitting down at or leave their desks. Then make sure that you provide all the supplies that they need to able to take care of themselves and their workspaces. If it will affect the feeling of safety and wellbeing, you can’t allow any exceptions.

Encourage forthrightness about illness
If people do not feel well, then you should encourage them to stay at home. Even if they feel well enough to work, but are showing symptoms of any transmissible illnesses, then you can have them work remotely, so they’re still able to contribute but without risking the health and safety of their coworkers. Traditionally, managers have been incentivised, though never explicitly, to encourage employees to work even when they are sick. For obvious reasons, this is not something we should be encouraging. It might take some time to adjust this part of workplace culture, but it is essential.

Clearing excess waste, making sure that regular cleaning happens, and providing your team with the sanitizing tools that they need are all examples of the kind of standard we all need to follow closely nowadays. More than ever, the health of the business depends on it.
