Flu Prevention Tips from Our Business Cleaning Experts
It’s important to be proactive in your fight against the flu. Otherwise, you may notice a drop in productivity and efficiency at your office. Here are just a few steps that you can take to promote the health, hygiene, and well-being of your employees this season:
- Have an office meeting on the topic of flu safety. Discuss important flu prevention steps with your team, including getting vaccinated against the flu. You can even suggest some clinics near your office that offer the flu vaccine. You’ll also want to remind your staff members that they should stay home whenever they feel ill. While they may feel that they should “push through” their symptoms, the reality is that they could infect the whole office by showing up to work.
- Encourage good hand hygiene. Proper hand hygiene is a crucial part of flu safety. However, not everyone washes their hands as thoroughly as they should. That’s why it’s a good idea to post up reminders about good hand washing techniques in your office bathrooms. You can also place hand sanitizer or disinfecting wipes in convenient places throughout the office.
- Partner with a high-quality business cleaning company. Choose a business cleaning service that has plenty of experience fighting the flu. At GVTA LLC of Augusta-Aiken, we utilize medical-grade cleaning formulas and germ-trapping microfiber materials as we clean high-touch areas where germs are often transmitted from person to person.
- Disinfect thoroughly and frequently. Experience the difference that EnviroShield®, our exclusive disinfection system, can make for your office. EnviroShield® kills 99% of bacteria and viruses on contact with a non-toxic, EPA-approved formula. Plus, it’s applied with a misting system that easily treats hard-to-clean surfaces like keyboards and fabrics.
