Techclean has shared how its thorough workplace cleaning service can help boost workplace health at this crucial time.
Though companies across the UK are being encouraged to work from home, some businesses aren’t able to shift their staff to remote working. As a result, many of us are more aware than ever about the cleanliness of our working environments.
In a fascinating blog post, the IT franchise shared some scary stats about how germy most offices really are. It explained:
“Workplace health has always been a significant public health issue. Each year more than a million working people in the UK experience a work-related illness. According to NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) this leads to around 27 million lost working days, costing the economy an estimated £13.4 billion.”
Unhygienic workplaces were found to be the key contributor to sick days, meaning it’s never been more important to take hygiene seriously.
According to Techclean, the average keyboard and mouse have more than 10 million bacteria on them, while the average toilet seat has 400 times fewer. One in five workers don’t clean their desk before eating either, while 20% admitted to never cleaning their computer mouse.
Techlean explained how its services can help companies keep their staff happy, healthy and at work.
“A healthy workforce is a happier workforce and reducing absenteeism is a great way to boost productivity. Keeping your workspace clean has never been more crucial and according to the government, a critical part of making and keeping your business ‘COVID-secure’. As specialists in providing hygienically clean workspaces, Techclean can help eliminate a major source of workplace sickness.”
