Why Office Cleaning, for Woodland Hills, is a Great Choice
Your office is probably the place you spend the most time other than your house. If you really want to creep yourself out a little bit, look around at all of your coworkers and ponder the fact that all of them probably spend more time at the office than anywhere else except home. That’s a lot of people occupying a relatively small space for a huge amount of time, most days of the week. Do you think your office is actually as clean as it should be, given the sheer volume of human life that goes on there?
It should be — cleanliness, as we’ve all heard, is next to Godliness, and besides that it’s a pretty firm requirement for keeping your office population healthy. But when it comes time to trim the budget somewhere, most managers seem to think that getting all of the garbage taken out every few days is distinctly less important than getting people to build widgets and get them out the door in exchange for cash money.
The effects of that trade-off are profound.
First, your offices will rapidly become a breeding ground — nay, even unto a petri dish — for different bacteria. This won’t have any immediately noticeable effects, but after a week or two, some people will start to sniffle basically constantly. After a month has gone by, productivity will start to take legitimate hits as people get sicker. Considering that the average U.S. worker costs the average U.S. business more than $230/year in absenteeism caused by personal illness, the cost of hiring someone to take care of the cleaning starts to sound like a heck of an investment!
Second, your workers will start to get fussy. They’re going to have to start cleaning up after each other, which means cleaning up after themselves as well. No one likes to have their normal workflow interrupted by an unexpected need to find a bottle of disinfectant and a wipe. Now imagine that frustration as experienced by a few hundred of your coworkers simultaneously.
Finally, your workplace will start being recognizably grungy. That’s the point at which you’ve definitely gone too far, because if you can see the filth, your vendors, clients, customers, and visitors can as well. In a world where first impressions are as critical as they are in modern America, can you risk having all of those outsiders see your business in it’s nasty, nasty glory?
