Cleaning Tips

Breaking the code

So often have we visited offices and commercial premises to find the basics of cleaning are not being implemented. One site (no names), that we recently visited was to arrange cleaning cover whilst the cleaning operative was on holiday. 

The company concerned was very proud of their cleaner of 3 years standing but when they showed us where the cleaning equipment was kept we saw what we had been witnessed on many occasions in other premises.

The yellow mop in the red bucket, blue mop in a green bucket! Doesn't sound like much of a disaster but it is wrong, wrong and wrong again!

The British Institute of Cleaning Science has simple guidelines to follow for colour coded cleaning tools - for example red mops/red buckets to be used in WC areas for mopping floors and washing urinals, etc.

I never know should I tell the company about the danger of cross contamination? 

Will they think me a 'telltale' vying for business or do I have a moral duty to point out the errors of the cleaning operative? I know if it were my staff on our regular jobs there is no doubt they would be told, but then they know better anyhow.

I certainly don't blame the company after all that is why they employ a cleaner and they should be expected to know.
