Keeping shared workspaces clean
Shared workspaces offer a great opportunity to connect with colleagues and get work done. But maintaining cleanliness is an important, often forgotten, part of a coworking space. Explore Carter and Faraday’s top tips for keeping your office clean for longer.
Tip 1: Start with a deep clean
It’s much easier to keep a shared workspace clean when you invest in a deep clean initially. That way you can rest assured that proper hygiene standards are adhered to. Carter and Faraday offer expert cleaning services by highly skilled staff. Whether you want office desk cleaning or a full deep clean of the workspace, we’re here to help.
Tip 2: Write a list of daily cleaning activities
It can feel overwhelming to keep an office space clean. By writing a short list of daily tasks, prioritising high-touch areas, you can ensure you stay on top of the basics. These tasks will be unique to your space, but might include things like sanitising door handles, cleaning keyboards out, and dusting computer screens. A professional cleaning company can ensure these are fully sanitised for you.
Tip 3: Get employees involved
By encouraging employees to support cleaning maintenance, you can reduce the pressure on the senior management, as well as save time and money. You could put signs up in communal areas reminding employees of basic cleaning rules and guidance. This might include a sign in a communal kitchen asking employees to wash up anything they use and wipe down the countertops.
Tip 4: Make sure you’re stocked up
If you run out of essential hygiene items, like washing up, soap, or cleaning products, it will be difficult to maintain a clean workspace. Make sure you stock up so you never need to worry. Did you know, Carter and Faraday provide all the cleaning equipment you might need, including soap, detergents, paper towels, and loo roll?
Tip 5: Keep on top of waste
One of the most common hygiene issues in shared workspaces is overflowing bins. Staying on top of waste disposal and management is really important. We’d encourage recycling and recommend emptying the bins every day.
Tip 6: Partner with a professional cleaning company
It’s not all on you to maintain hygiene in shared workspaces. Carter and Faraday offer customised cleaning packages tailored to your business needs. Benefit from flexible scheduling, including out-of-hours cleaning to minimise disruption.
