How Arelli Can Help Maintain Compliance with the Latest Guidance for Reopening Schools

While many schools across Ontario are currently open to welcome students in person, there are new guidelines in place to help maintain safety that can be made easier to achieve through visits from janitorial cleaning services in Barrie.

The U.S.-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recently released its advice about how school leaders can safely open schools for kindergarteners up to Grade 12 students. Among its recommendations are students should wear masks (and wear them correctly), while continuing to maintain physical distancing. Proper hand washing and coughing/sneezing etiquette should also be reinforced (meaning coughing into a tissue or using the inside of your elbow.)

Importance of Janitorial Cleaning During Winter Months

When it comes to winter, your staff doesn’t take the season off – and neither should janitorial cleaning services. In fact, not only should you maintain regular visits from commercial janitorial services during the colder months, you might even want to consider increasing them.

Why? Well, if you’re familiar with Canadian winters, then you’ll know that they can create a mess from snow, ice, and dirt. Mix them together and they get stuck onto shoes and boots, which then tracks into the office. While this can make flooring slippery, becoming a liability, the salt and grime can also eat away at flooring and make its way deep into carpeting, potentially causing damage.

There’s another big reason to step up your cleaning and janitorial services schedule in winter. Most people will be wearing gloves during the winter months, and on the surface that may seem like they’re protected from picking up viruses and germs onto their hands. But the opposite is true – the gloves can become a magnet for them, and then get spread onto doorknobs and other surfaces when a staff or client enters the building. Those same surfaces can be touched by others, potentially causing illnesses.

Making Use of Hand Sanitizers Effectively to Maintain Safety During the Pandemic

Now that many people are returning to the office, there are a number of precautions that employees can take to lower their risk of catching or spreading COVID-19. 

While social distancing and wearing proper PPE’s might be two approaches, proper commercial cleaning services and using hand sanitizers are other trusted ways to help keep the virus at bay. 

However, when it comes to sanitizers, there’s a right and wrong way to use it. Whether it’s your own supply at your workstation or from a public dispenser, ensure you are using one that is alcohol-based that contains at least 60% or higher alcohol. Put enough sanitizer on your hands to cover all surfaces of both sides of your hands and rub together to create friction like you would washing your hands with soap and water until they feel dry (this should take around 20 seconds). Ensure the sanitizers are not part of the ones being recalled.

Make Sure It’s Approved

When choosing a hand sanitizer, make sure the product has been approved by Health Canada. This does not mean they’re specifically aimed at coronavirus; however, these products have been shown to reduce the spread of microorganisms that cause infectious diseases.

Deep Disinfection and Sanitization

As the threat of coronavirus (COVID-19) continues, the need for commercial cleaning to help with sanitization and disinfection is higher than ever. That’s why Arelli Commercial Cleaning has gone the extra mile to make sure it plays its part to help combat this disease.

Standard processes included in regular commercial cleaning is considered effective to disinfect surfaces against viruses, yet COVID-19 has proved to be an uncanny one with the ability to stay potent for a considerable amount of time as we explained in our previous blogs.

Wiping to disinfect and sanitize through standard office cleaning is a manual process which can leave small portions of the wiped surfaces exposed due to human error.

Unfollow These Janitorial Cleaning Myths For A Better Environment

What are the first things that come to your mind when you think about commercial janitorial services? You might be surprised to learn that some of the assumptions you’ve made about cleaning need to be swept away.

That’s why it’s a good idea to use commercial cleaning services that take the guesswork out of cleaning effectively. But in the meantime, let’s scrub down to the truth about janitorial cleaning services and why your business can benefit from them. Here are some common myths about the industry…

Cleaning and Disinfecting Are The Same

While a company may use one type of cleaner for both cleaning and disinfecting, you should know this is not a one-step process. First, all of the surface dirt and debris needs to be removed with the cleaning product, and then another layer can be added and left in place for a while to kill all of the germs that can lead to illness.

Cleaning Requires Harsh Chemicals

Not true! In fact, the rise of green cleaning that’s offered by some commercial cleaning services means that more environmentally-friendly cleaners are being used to achieve the same results as traditional ones.

Your staff likely won’t complain as much about green cleaning as the harsh scent left behind by some bleaches. Many of these “green” products are certified to be safe, and you can see that on the label.

It Takes A Lot of Cleaning Product to be Effective

In some cases, maybe. But generally, a company that has experience delivering commercial janitorial services knows that it’s about using the right amount of cleaner – not as much as possible – to be effective.
