Why Clean Floors Are So Important In The Workplace

March 15, 2021

The floors in a facility are usually the single largest area that a staff must keep clean daily. And, while there are many other things that must be seen to each day, nothing takes more abuse than our floors. Therefore, they require special attention.

There are several benefits to properly maintaining clean floors:

A Clean Floor Means Great Impressions

Appearance counts. We can all appreciate visiting a clean building. It makes our experience complete when we see that a company takes pride in where they conduct business. It shows us that they care about their employees, visitors, and customers. I would go as far as saying that it even gives us a peak at the integrity of management.

Visitor and employee perception is extremely important to all businesses and places of worship. Whether we like it or not, we are being judged by the way we take care of our surroundings.

A Clean Floor Means Less Germs

Every foot that crosses the threshold of your business brings with it bacteria, viruses, dirt, and debris. Floors free of soils and debris offer no shelter for harmful pathogens to thrive. When mopped with a proper neutral disinfectant, we are annihilating those microbes that could potentially be a threat.

A Clean Floor Means Safety

Every facility manager or owner of a building must be concerned with limiting risk. According to the National Safety Council, there are around 9 million emergency room visits every year due to slips, trips, and falls.

Dirty floors have a compromised slip resistance, increasing risk. Well cared for floors and pathways offer a safer environment with less risk for a business.

A Clean Floor Means You Save Money

Replacing floors in a commercial environment can be extremely costly. The lifespan of all floors can be extended by years, if properly taken care of.

Types Of Floors And Specific Needs

There are many types of floors in commercial buildings. Each has specific demands for daily care and periodic maintenance.

All hard floors need to be swept and mopped daily. Some hard floors need to be polished from time to time. Many require a top-scrub and recoat or a strip and refinish occasionally. Grout lines must be deep cleaned periodically with many tile floors. Carpet needs to be cleaned through deep water extraction.

Much of the occasional maintenance does require the right equipment such as vacuums, slow-speed floor machines, high-speed burnishers, and commercial-grade carpet cleaners.
