Day Porter Cleaning And Disinfecting Services New Normal

Clean business and buildings are now a
priority. It does not need to be further emphasized how COVID-19 has changed
our daily lives and how we look at things in our new normal.

Facing this abrupt wake-up call, many outside of the commercial
cleaning industry were surprised how little and infrequently our offices,
shopping malls, restaurants, gyms, and airplanes were actually being cleaned
by professionals. Commercial cleaning services, until COVID-19, was really
seen as a luxury or ancillary business cost and usually one of the first
scratched off when budgets needed to be cut. (As some insight, many in the
commercial cleaning service industry were already used to carrying around
hand sanitizer and refused to touch door handles even before all of
this…)

Now, for very good reason, we are seeing an increased demand for
cleaner facilities as we have all taken a small course by way of the
news and CDC.com
on virus transmission. Viruses are present wherever and whenever an infected
person enters a building, whether it is through droplet transmission in the
air or on surfaces. That means your coronavirus cleaning services and
protocols can’t wait for that evening’s or your one-time a week janitorial
service to come through. 

How Can Day Porter Services Can Help

This is where day porter cleaning and disinfecting services come
in. If you have a busy business, a number of essential staff, or school
looking at reopening day, there are a lot of high traffic areas and high
touchpoints that need to be continuously disinfected as the day goes on. Just
think of how many people come through your door each day and each one of them
is touching the door handles, clocking in, visiting the restroom, using the
microwave or drinking fountains, or for schools – playing on the gym mats or
visiting the library. With each person who touches these surfaces, there is
an increased opportunity for virus transmission.

With a day porter janitorial service, you have someone (or even a
few people) there during your open hours continuously circling the facility
and wiping down these surfaces with an EPA List N disinfectant. Another
option is for someone to come in at intervals during the day, say during each
break, to disinfect the breakrooms, bathrooms, or working areas.

In addition to assuring you are providing a healthier environment
for your customers and employees by contracting a day porter,
they will be more at ease as well. Seeing a uniformed, badged cleaning
professional with a microfiber towel and bottle of disinfectant proactively
cleaning surfaces is putting your business in the best position to bring
those customers and employees back. In our new normal created by COVID-19,
the cleanliness of your business is no longer a luxury, its a
necessity.
