It's easy to hear 'workplace cleaning solutions' and think of a long list of tasks you need to manage. Empty dispensers, unorganized messes and irregular cleaning are all common cleaning challenges for many businesses. 
 
We've gathered simple solutions to some of these common issues to make sure your business can easily meet high cleaning standards. 
 
Read on to find out how Tork can help your team create a clean working environment for employees and potential guests.
 

Challenge 1 - Messy workplace organization

 
A messy workplace doesn't just make it harder to find tools and resources when you need them. It can have many other negative consequences on the well-being of your employees. Untidy offices have been linked to staff feeling more drained, more likely to procrastinate, and less able to focus.*

Solution 1 - Develop a cleaning plan

Creating a workplace cleaning checklist for your staff helps ensure everything that needs organizing is sorted. This can include cleaning guidelines such as: 
 
A list of where needs cleaning, covering everything from floors to keyboards. 
 
Information on which person is responsible for each area. 
 
Instructions on which cleaning products to use and where.  
 
A list of where to store workplace resources and lost property. 
 
Find more information about how to customize your cleaning checklist to your industry with the Clean Care™ Program. It's packed with information specific to your industry, with toolkits built to boost hygiene in your workplace. 
 

Challenge 2 - Sustainable cleaning

 
From your employees' well-being to your sustainability goals, we're all working towards creating a sustainable workplace experience. This trend will likely only increase, with Millennials and Gen Z listing environmental issues as one of their top three concerns.** 
 
But sustainability shouldn't come at the cost of quality cleaning products that are quick and easy to use. 
 

Solution 2 - Use sustainable cleaning products 

We're focused on helping you to get more from less in your business. For example, our goal is to eliminate waste in all production facilities by 2030. We're aiming to achieve this by increasing hygiene awareness, accessibility and education. Our state-of-the-art courses for hygiene education provide your team with informative, engaging training. 
 
Cleaning products are just one part of building a sustainable workplace, but they contribute to the larger environmental picture. Many Tork products can assist you in obtaining LEED credits (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) to get LEED certified.

Challenge 3 - Irregular cleaning

 
You may have a cleaning plan and still find that cleaning isn't happening as regularly as needed. This can be a significant issue in larger facilities, where cleaning companies may struggle to prioritize their workloads. Looking to cleaning software is a great answer to fixing this problem. 

Solution 3 - Find the right cleaning software

Tork Vision Cleaning uses an innovative data-driven approach to map where and when different areas in your workplace need cleaning. This stops any cleaning areas getting missed or forgotten about. 
 
From refills to easy safety regulation checks, it can help you reduce up to 20% of your current cleaning time. This means saving time and money while keeping your workplace safe and hygienic with a custom cleaning plan. 
 

Challenge 4 - Personal hygiene in the workplace

Hand hygiene is becoming an increasingly prevalent topic for both businesses and employees. Similarly to sustainability, Millennials and Gen Z listed health care and disease prevention among their top 3 current concerns.***
 
Encouraging hand hygiene can help reduce the risk of infection and disease for all your employees. This, in turn, increases well-being and productivity from reduced sick days to a healthier workforce.****
 

Solution 4 - Promote better handwashing

Visual cues can help promote better hand hygiene in your workplace. Upgrade to the Tork PeakServe® Continuous™ Hand Towel System to give employees these visual paper nudges. These cues can improve hand hygiene and compliance by 23%.*****
 
And with their higher holding capacity and reduced refill time, your cleaning team can support better hand hygiene in less time.******
