E-book: Handbook on Cleaning

Description

Cleaning services are wellbeing services: it simply feels good to be in a clean room. Adequate cleanliness boosts people’s work efficiency and helps them succeed in their principal activities. For example, in healthcare facilities, people’s lives can depend on cleanliness and the ways in which it is achieved.

Our team at Puhastusekspert has studied in several countries for decades to be able to implement the very best practices in Estonia. We have carried out training and developed cleaning in other countries. Experience shows that the main issues are the same regardless of location. Increasingly, awareness is essential to achieve the desired cleanliness through optimal action.

This book covers the basic topics you should know about cleaning and how to manage it. It serves as a handbook for cleaning managers in their daily work, as teaching material for in-house training as well as for independent studying and self-training.

We believe that deliberate cleaning creates value for the people using the rooms and increases the efficiency of the hours spent cleaning. We hope our handbook will help you make more informed choices when cleaning and clean like a pro.

E-book has 168 pages.

Daytime Cleaning Is a Smart Investment

Cleaning saves lives. That’s not just a slogan it’s a fact, as emphasized by global leaders like ISSA. Yet too often, cleaning remains invisible: done in the early hours or late at night, when buildings are empty and cleaners are out of sight. This invisibility leads to undervaluation, low wages, and missed opportunities to recognize the true impact of cleaning work.
