Cleaning tips for a healthier workplace

Simple habits make a real difference to a healthier workplace:

• Focus on touch points – door handles, lift buttons, light switches, kettles and shared desks.
• Clean, then disinfect – disinfectants work best on surfaces that are already clean.
• Follow contact times – leave the product on the surface for as long as the label says.
• Use colour-coded cloths to stop germs moving between washrooms and kitchens.
• Keep washrooms stocked – soap and paper towels encourage good hand hygiene.
• Ventilate where you can.
• Plan deep cleans – periodic deep cleans reach what daily cleaning misses.
