COMMUNICATION AND SAFETY

To Clean Your Office Space For Health First

Proper communication and safety go hand in hand. If there is no communication for a given work task, then safety is also missing. Some common tools for communicating a safety message:

• Training is a way to communicate how to do a task and how to do it safely and is one of the first methods of communication used when preparing for a work task.
• JSAs are important tools to communicate the steps of a job task, the associated hazards of each step, and the mitigation actions to be able to work safely.
• Safety meetings or toolbox talks discussing work tasks and the associated hazards of the work are very important for work crews. Paying attention to the safety meeting information can protect you during your work task that day or sometime in the future.

In the light of recent requirements for extreme attention to office spaces cleaning and sanitising  and the increased pressures on employers, the role of the office cleaner has never been more important. 

Being professional cleaners, AM Retail team is focused on cleaning your office for health first. We understand that the regular removal of contaminants from key germ transfer points is critical in reducing the spread of illness in the workplace. 

Moreover, our specialists pay special attention to the removal of soil and pollutants from premises thus helping to improve overall indoor air quality.
