Performance Standards that you should expect from a Commercial Cleaning Company


Your business is important to you and your customers are even more so, as they are the ones that drive your business. Of equal importance are your employees as they are the ones who will serve your customers. As business owner you have a responsibility to ensure that the needs of stakeholders are met and one of the greatest needs is having a clean place in which to work and do business. The most discerning business owners will look to hire a professional cleaning service which meet specific performance standards


This is because they understand the level professionalism that will be brought to the job of making your surroundings spotless and ready for business.

So, before signing a contract with a commercial cleaning company, make sure you will be getting the quality of service that you expect, by including the following service standards in any agreement with a potential cleaning service provider.


Cleaning Performance Standards

It’s a fact, people have different and varying opinions on what they consider to be a required standard of cleaning. That’s why cleaning performance standards for your business should be established. The standards should be based on your own expectations as well as any regulation that your business my need to comply with. It is perhaps best to do this on a scale with ratings from excellent to poor so that all parties are aware when the standards are being met, when they are being exceeded or when they are not up to standard.


Staffing

It can be disruptive and irritating if the cleaning staff is changed every day or if there are not enough employed to carry out the service adequately at any given time. If you or your team have to spend time constantly inducting cleaning personnel into your business or the work is not getting done on time because the cleaning staff is stretched, this is a major issue. A quality-driven cleaning contractor will have a stable and adequately staffed operation at all times to attend to your needs with a monitoring system to track arrival and departure times.


Customer Service

If, the cleaning staff is rude to your employees and customers, this is a no go. The service provider needs to ensure that the right types of employees are placed in your business and are fully trained not only in customer service but in every relevant area to enable them to do a good job.


Security

Your commercial cleaning company should be able to prove that all their cleaning staff have undergone a DBS check.


It’s also important to establish how they manage the security of the keys to your business. Businesses should provide keys which are security protected so can’t be taken away and copied. They should also be stored in a safe way when not in use.


Health & Safety Compliance

Cleaning services use a variety of chemicals to carry out the job. It is important that providers maintain the relevant health and safety standards so that neither their employees nor the clients are put in any danger because of improper chemical use, careless work practices or improper use of equipment that may cause harm. Employees should receive the relevant training and the commercial cleaning company must ensure that its operations are compliant with all the relevant health and safety standards.
