Especially as their focus tends to be on other things in the room, many are guilty of giving the floors the attention it needs when it comes to most commercial cleaning. The floors are affected by dirt, debris, dust, and the residual substances left from foot-traffic, regardless of the type of floor. Additional problems that impact the floor include spills, and improperly discarded waste. The dirty floors are hurting your business more than you realize, though these seem minor in the grand scheme of things, and we at Clean Pro NY would like share why.
Dirty Floors Can Make Your Staff Sick
Sick days are often due to the filthy floors. The more days off are needed the filthier the floors are. Dirty floors house a lot of disease-causing germs and bacteria. Germs and bacteria growth flourish in the filthy environments. You can reduce the spreading of ailments in the commercial space by ensuring the floors are regularly cleaned properly and sanitized.
Productivity Falls when Workplace is Not Clean
When compared to healthy staff members, unhealthy staff members are far less productive. The productivity drops even more with a loss of energy, vigor, and ambition due to becoming ill. This trickle affect can all stem from the filth, contaminates, pollution, and allergens trapped in even seemingly clean carpets. With various health complications affecting your business, you will spend most of your time and resources in treating your employees as a result. The revenue can be channeled more profitably into the company rather than being spent or lost on health-related issues. Staff more focused on the surrounding germ-infest workplace tend to be less productive as well. When their environment is a dusty, filthy mess, few can demonstrate any levels of pride. In such conditions, many people will naturally look for any excuse to not be there. Simply because of dirty floors, a decline in morale and then the productivity is hit, as a result.
Dirty Business Premises Hurts Reputation
Every business as an image to protect. Your image and reputation can be negatively impacted by a small thing, such as the lack of cleanliness. Whether they are suppliers, customers, and colleagues, you have visitors besides your employees walking through on a regular basis. With poorly cleaned floors marring the overall presentation of your business’s aesthetics, such reviews, comments, and opinions spread, poor impressions can spread like wildfire. If they are hit with the communicable diseases, even more so.
Dust, Dirt & Debris Can Damage Floors
A filthy floor will decrease the potential lifespan, no matter what type of floors line your business. The buildup of dirt and other unwanted materials will accelerate deterioration leads to corrosion and even structural damage. Significant damage to the floors can be caused from acidic or chemical agents in the substances that make their way on the floor as well as other pollutants and contaminants, left long-term, or even short-term. The floor deteriorates from the dirt, being a natural abrasive and the foot traffic causes friction, which creates a sandpaper-like affect. There are countless examples of seemingly harmless substances that cause damage. Replacing floors too soon hurts your business’s profits and can slow down productivity waiting for the floors to be replaced.
