A steady stream of customers, employees, and other visitors flows through the entrances of most workplaces all day long. And no matter how many janitors or cleaners you employ, the office will always become dirty again. Some areas are simply missed; therefore, making an extra effort in those cases is much more important.
The restrooms are often the first thing that come to mind when considering the dirtiest areas of your workplace. While it’s true that the restrooms are a hotbed for unpleasant bacteria and viruses, there are plenty of other spots around the office that serve as incubators for these same microorganisms.
We have years of experience providing cleaning and maintenance services in Kansas City, and we can help you identify the ignored parts of your workplace. Here are a few examples:
Computer Input Devices—Keyboards, Mouse, Printer & Copiers
Employees spend most of their days at their computers. They may also be munching away at their workstations. Dust, filth, and even crumbs from the lunch someone eats at their desk every day can accumulate in the tiny crevices between the keys of a keyboard.
In addition, everyone in the office frequently uses printers and photocopiers. These devices’ constant handling makes them breeding grounds for germs, which can then be transferred to one’s hands and spread illness if they are used to handle food again.
Desk Phones
Desk phones in offices are constantly being used by a wide variety of people and are often ignored when it comes to cleaning. Germs can be easily transferred by just touching the dial buttons. When a person puts one of these to their ear and opens their mouth to talk into the headset, they expose themselves to bacteria and other germs from the device.
Water Dispenser or Fountain Buttons
Every time we’ve been hired for office cleaning services, we’ve found water fountains and dispensers that clearly hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. The buttons on a water fountain or dispenser are a breeding ground for germs since they are used so frequently by so many people. Because of this, keeping the dispenser clean is necessary.
Handles and Knobs
Handles on anything from doorknobs to sink faucets to kitchen cabinets to appliances like the fridge and microwave are always being touched by different people and hence are highly contaminated. In addition, these areas are frequently neglected during cleanings, even though they can harbor bacteria for weeks or months.
