Not every workplace needs cleaning at the same time or frequency. A small professional office may have different needs from a shopping Centre, warehouse or multi-tenanted commercial building.
Factors that may influence the schedule include:
- Property size and layout
- Number of employees and visitors
- Type of business conducted on site
- Floor materials
- Number of kitchens and washrooms
- Operating hours
- Seasonal conditions
- Customer-facing areas
- Waste-management requirements
Some businesses benefit from cleaning before opening or after closing. Others may need certain tasks completed during the day, especially in frequently used shared spaces.
A useful cleaning plan identifies the areas that matter most, establishes the appropriate frequency and allows the service to be adjusted when business requirements change.
