How Office Cleaning Affect Productivity

Businesses tend to focus on quantifiable metrics such as revenue and expenditures most of the time, neglecting the intangible aspects of a business such as employee morals, healthy work environment and workplace productivity. Today, we will show you how the physical facilities of your office are crucial in creating a happy, healthy and positive work environment that will provide long-term benefits for your business. 
Healthy office environment to protect your employees.

A cluttered and messy office tends to become a breeding ground for harmful microorganisms that may cause significant impacts on the employees’ overall health. Many researches have shown that the office keyboards and other commonly used office tools contain 3 – 4 times more harmful microorganisms than an average used office toilet seat, primarily due to people eating lunch on their work stations and poor personal and overall hygiene practices in the office.

The growth of these harmful microorganisms is not only putting the person working at the office workstation at risk, but has also indirectly decreased the productivity of the office employees.

Office cleaning services in Singapore help to reduce the amount of harmful bacteria in the workplace to keep your employees safe and healthy. 

Office cleaning services help to increase focus and productivity.

Decluttering the mess in the office is often the key to obtaining clarity and focus in your business. A messy office often impacts one’s attention and effectiveness. In short, a clean office gives you fewer distractions and allows your employees to work more productively.

The look and feel of an office can affect company culture and retention

The physical office environment plays a significant role in attracting and retaining both clients and employees. We see many MNCs heavily invest in keeping their office environment at optimal condition as a core part of their hiring and retention strategy. Having a messy and unhygienic office environment also appears to have a negative impact on the employee state of mind and wellbeing.

Reducing long-term wear and tear and refurbishment cost

From our experience, offices that are well-maintained usually end up lowering costs in the long run. Carpeted office flooring that is not well serviced and clean, typically needs replacements in less than five years costing thousands of dollars or more. It would be substantially cheaper if they engaged a reliable office cleaning service provider for periodic quarterly carpet care services.
