Cleaning Staff Is Trained Even In The Smallest Of Cleaning Tasks

I recently attended the housekeeping training session being done in our society. I live in Gurgaon and I am a member of our RWA (Resident Welfare Association). Every now and then, one member of the RWA is required to attend the housekeeping training so that we know what cleaning is happening and how it is happening in our society. I was surprised to see the level of professionalism these cleaning services in Delhi NCR believe in. There was some senior from the facility management team who was training the cleaning staff and was telling them to prepare fresh cleaning solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions using appropriate PPE according to Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). He told everyone to place ‘wet floor’ caution sign outside of room or area being mopped. He also told cleaning people to divide the area into sections (for example corridors may be divided into two halves, lengthwise, so that one side is available for movement of traffic while the other is being cleaned.) This senior was an expert who gave enough detailing on smallest of cleaning task. For instance, he told people how to immerse mop in cleaning solution and wring out as well as how to push mop around skirting’s first, paying particular attention to removing soil from corners, avoiding splashing walls or furniture. The cleaning staff was being advised to use a figure eight stroke in open and wide spaces, overlapping each stroke; to turn mop head over every five or six strokes. While in small spaces, it was advised to start in the farthest corner of the room, drag the mop toward oneself, then push it away, working in straight, slightly overlapping lines and keeping the mop head in full contact with the floor.

It was actually good to see the cleaning staff being trained so well, which in turn improves the quality of services being delivered.

Live And Work In A Clean, Hygienic And Safe Environment

Cleaning services or housekeeping services can simply be defined as “Provision of clean, comfortable, safe and aesthetically pleasing environment”. Housekeeping is a support service department responsible for cleanliness, maintenance and aesthetic upkeep of any place, be it client’s residential or official premises. Cleaning services also fall under the umbrella of sanitation services etc. They are entrusted with maintaining a hygienic and clean environment conducive to the well-being of all. It consists of activities related to cleanliness, maintenance of environment and good sanitation services for keeping premises free from pollution. For example, sanitation and disposal of waste using appropriate methods, equipment and manpower form the basis of cleaning services. However, all said and done, it is not just cleaning but cleaning services in Delhi NCR are run like any other company, which is really praiseworthy. All leading cleaning service providers in such metros try to attain and maintain high standards of cleanliness. They train, control and supervise staff under their establishment as well as ensure the safety and security of all their employees. Records are maintained on staffing and cleaning materials and equipment. This goes to show the professionalism this industry has attained over these years.

Nowadays, growing pollution levels in Delhi NCRare creating a lot of havoc. The environment seems to contain too much of microbial flora, many of which may constitute a risk to public. Transmission of microorganisms is more severe and this involves presence of infectious agents. To avoid all such health hazards, it is best to have regular cleaning done at almost every place possible. This is why the role of cleaning or rather deep cleaning has become all the more important in today’s times. So, let us pledge to stay clean and healthy and make our place as clean as possible. And for this, you may take professional help, whenever required.
