Keeping your office sparkling clean goes beyond aesthetics. A truly sanitized workspace fosters a healthy environment for employees, reducing absenteeism and promoting overall well-being. However, germs can lurk in surprising places, often escaping routine cleaning procedures.
This guide from LJDM, Edmonton’s trusted commercial cleaning provider, unveils these hidden germ havens and equips you with a comprehensive deep clean strategy.
The Hidden Germ Hotspots
There are often overlooked areas in your office that harbor a surprising number of germs. These germ hotspots, if left unattended, can become breeding grounds for illnesses and pose a significant health risk to your employees.
Office Equipment: Your office equipment, including keyboards, phones, and mice, are frequently touched throughout the day, making them prime targets for germ accumulation.
Studies have shown that keyboards can harbor up to 10 million bacteria per square inch, surpassing even toilet seats in terms of germ concentration.
Break Room Furniture: The break room, a hub for socializing and recharging, can also be a haven for germs. Shared surfaces like countertops, tables, and chairs, along with vending machines and coffee makers, are often touched by multiple people without proper sanitization.
Door Handles: Door handles, the silent sentinels of your office, are constantly in contact with hands, transferring germs from one person to another.
These often-overlooked surfaces can harbor a multitude of viruses and bacteria, making them a significant contributor to the spread of illness.
