Selecting The Right Commercial Cleaning Contractor - Pt. 1

You want your facility to be a clean and healthy environment for your employees. Hiring the right commercial cleaning contractor is one of the most critical aspects of reaching that objective. As with the selection of any service provider your ability to hire a cleaning contractor that will meet your expectations will require that you assess several important factors.  Those factors would include:

• Communication of Requirements
• Contractor’s Experience
• Hiring and Training of Cleaning Staff
• Quality Control

Safety Huddle - Chemical Safety

The goal of the Safety Huddle program is to increase every team member’s safety awareness.  There will be a different topic every other month with important safety tips and information.  Managers and supervisors will be responsible for sharing this information with all team member.   

Purpose

Identify chemical hazards and take proper precautions to protect your health and safety whenever you work with or around hazardous chemicals.

OSHA’s Hazard Communication standard says that you have the right to know about chemical hazards in the workplace and how to work safely with hazardous chemicals.
