Recently, hybrid and flexible working has become more popular. But what are the benefits of commercial cleaning for hybrid workplaces? And why should you keep up with your professional cleaning in a hybrid working environment?
What is hybrid working?
Hybrid working is something that increased in popularity for commercial staff and businesses during the Covid 19 pandemic. This means a number of different things for different businesses, including:
- The whole staff only attend the office for a few days during the week- this is one of the most common ways to organise hybrid staff although for some businesses the office is only staffed for 2 or 3 days, with the whole team, while for others the office is staffed for the whole week with different staff members working from home on different days.
- A skeleton crew will attend the office all week- this is a popular choice as it allows the office to be maintained with fewer staff handling tasks that cannot be completed remotely, while for the majority of the week the rest of the team work from home.
- Part of the workforce will work from home full time- in this situation, part of your team may still work in the office as normal, while part of your workforce now works from home full time, leaving fewer people in the office space.
So, what are the benefits of commercial cleaning for hybrid workplaces?
There are a number of reasons benefits to commercial cleaning for hybrid workplaces, and these double as reasons why you should absolutely not change your current commercial cleaning routine. These include:
- Keeping your staff healthy- Viruses and infections can be quite unpleasant, including flu and norovirus, and these easily spread in places where people work in close contact with each other. As such, keeping your office environment fully clean and hygienic can help to keep your staff healthy, and maintain high productivity and output.
- Dust is always being produced- you may think that with fewer people in the office, this wont be getting as dirty. However, even in rooms that are long abandoned dust and cobwebs build up. This is because dust is always being produced, regardless of humans. As a result, professional office cleaning is just as important with a skeleton staff as it is for a full team.
