When it comes to running a business, outsourcing your cleaning services can prove to be essential to a smooth and profitable organisation.
No matter what business you’re in, keeping premises clean is as important for health and safety reasons as it is for customer and staff experience. Whatever business you’re in, Samsic offers various services such as our buildings management for business parks to make your business as clean as possible.
If you want to improve customer experience and staff morale, preserve the longevity and aesthetics of your establishment as well as streamline your business’s operation, then a commercial cleaning service is absolutely crucial.
Here are some reasons why you need to hire a commercial cleaning service.
Relieve pressure from management and staff
Staff and management are busy with other tasks throughout the working day, and the last thing they need is to have extra cleaning responsibilities piled on top – and, it can be hard to find the time in the day needed to clean.
If cleaning tasks are delegated amongst existing staff, it can decrease the time they have to spend on more pressing matters, as well as creates more things for management to worry about (including splitting tasks fairly, ordering materials and equipment, and overseeing the cleaning work).
Furthermore, having a clean environment can have a positive impact on productivity and motivation as there is less clutter to distract employees. We’ve placed cleanliness at the core of our brand new Revive campaign, with which we aim to provide businesses with bespoke facilities management solutions, for example, our manufacturing facilities management. This campaign aims to ensure a safe, secure and hygienic workspace, allowing employees to reach their full potential during working hours.
A clean workspace will feel fresher, healthier and will promote productivity – and you won’t have to worry about doing it yourself.
Commercial cleaners are trained to work fast while also working effectively to keep up with the service schedule and price points. Though this may cost cleaning companies more time and money initially, it will more than provide a return on investment when it comes to retaining business and attracting new customers.
Maintains properties and prevents damage
Commercial cleaners are professionally trained to ensure that buildings are both hygienic and safe
It’s important to regularly clean areas to prevent damage – for example, if there is a spillage that isn’t dealt with in good time, it could lead to permanent damage or staining.
Hiring commercial cleaners can be cost-effective in the long run as you won’t have to replace furniture as often, for example.
Cleanliness reflects the business
Whether you welcome customers into your business or not, having a clean, well-organised premises will make a good first impression on customers and staff alike, as well as retaining any existing ones
If a customer at any point feels an establishment is unclean, unhygienic or unsafe, they’re pretty unlikely to want to return.
A commercial cleaning company will offer a high-quality standard of cleaning that you can rely on.
Essential for health and safety
Not throwing away expired consumables, allowing mould to grow, or leaving dust to pile up can be bad for people’s health.
For example, if you run a hotel and have a guest who suffers from asthma, dust could trigger a reaction which could place them at risk.
Therefore, contract cleaners play a pivotal role in keeping guests and employees safe.
Professional standards
Let’s face it: everyone can clean, but not everyone can clean well.
By hiring a professional commercial cleaning company, you are ensuring that every task is done to the highest quality possible, keeping your workplace up to government health and safety standards.
These guidelines emphasise the importance of cleanliness when maintaining a safe workplace, with business owners asked to ensure that they keep an environment free of dirt, dust, spills and trip hazards in order to keep employees safe.
There are also guidelines advising on workplace hygiene standards. According to HSE, employers must provide employees with clean and hygienic spaces to work, eat and use toilet facilities.
Given such guidance, alongside the recent pandemic and the strain to keep workplaces safe, it’s crucial that you have a good cleaning strategy, which is best left to the experts.
While all employees can be asked to do their part to maintain a clean and tidy working environment by cleaning up after themselves, only a commercial cleaning company will have both the time and capabilities to ensure that these standards are upheld in a way that keeps all employees safe and well.
To meet these standards, surfaces, furniture, staff rooms, toilet facilities and all other common areas need to be kept clean, dust-free and sanitised at all times, making this a job for a commercial cleaning crew.
Here at Samsic UK, we focus on innovation to help bring our clients the best of the best cleaning services, and we often employ unique solutions that can’t be carried out by non-professionals.
Therefore, by hiring a commercial cleaning company, you are ensuring you receive the best quality and results.
