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.

6 tips to get rid of dust

Dust is inescapable. It kind of just happens. Dust is dirt that can have a direct impact on our health. In addition to allergies, it can affect even healthy people because dusty rooms can contain more mould spores than normal. Breathing in dust and spores uses up a certain amount of the body’s energy to cope with them, resulting in reduced immunity. If a person weakened by this then comes into contact with a virus, they are more likely to fall ill. We also tend to feel more tired in such spaces.
