Your employees spend thousands of hours per year in your office. As such, they might be exposed to many elements that can adversely affect their health if the office is being inadequately cleaned. These include aggravation of conditions such as asthma and allergies, and the spread of illnesses and viruses through cross-contamination.

Viruses such as influenza and H1N1 (swine flu) are passed when a healthy person touches a surface an infected person has touched, and then touches their nose or mouth. X-Pert Janitorial helps halt the spread of viruses by disinfecting surfaces that are commonly touched by many people, such as:

• Doorknobs
• Light switches
• Refrigerator handles, freezer handles, coffeepot handles, and sink knobs
• Toilet/urinal flush handles, paper towel and other dispenser handles.

Furthermore, in addition to disinfecting common surfaces, it is also critical that any janitorial services provider take the time and effort to thoroughly clean the office, taking care not to miss even the areas that would probably not be noticeable if dirty. Some very common conditions that can be aggravated by remaining dust, dander, mold, excessive or harsh chemicals, and other examples of sloppy cleaning are:

• Asthma
• Eczema
• Psoriasis
• Allergies

X-Pert Janitorial helps protect the health of your employees by using responsible amounts of chemicals and taking the time and effort to thoroughly clean and disinfect- in other words, we don’t just clean for appearance, we clean for health. A clean-looking office is good, but an office that actually is clean and safe for your employees is ideal. The X-Pert Janitorial difference will be apparent visually, but it will also be present in non-visually apparent ways, such as the health and safety of your employees.
