How important are janitors & janitorial staff to our daily lives? Should this be even a question, is my response. Though it's a very inquisitive question to ask, being that sometimes-cleaning staff individuals tend to be under appreciated. Speaking as a person from experience being a part of a janitorial staff, we are very much important. janitors & janitorial staff are a key puzzle piece, to the functioning of all workspaces and environment in our daily lives. They ensure the work environment remains clean, hazard-free, and functional.

  During my janitorial experience with "City Wide Facility Solutions", I learned disinfection of surfaces, proper waste disposal, and attention to spills on floor surfaces help prevent bacteria and viruses that causes diseases. In places like test labs and clinics, dust can tend to accumulate quickly which can seriously impact patients and individuals with allergies. A janitorial staff role becomes critical to workspace for their expertise in sanitation. Janitors are another line of defense in maintaining safety in workspaces and environments. Clutters and spills can create hazards that lead to workplace accidents. By janitors maintaining floor maintenance and using proper signage for spills and/or broken appliances, they help prevent accidents and injuries.

  Lastly, janitors & janitorial staff work sometimes require long hours, manual labor, and most importantly attention to detail. By keeping our daily environment and workspaces clean, restocked, and safe, it strongly impacts productivity and an individual's mental well-being. While a cluttered environment can create confusion, add stress, and most critical it's the antidote for GERMS! For example, a clean, sanitized, and debris-free dentist office can help customer traffic flow through the office. Compared to a cluttered and germy office, I guarantee that office will have no customer traffic flow. To top off the importance of janitors & janitorial staff roles they protect public health, trained professionals that help limit the spread of infectious diseases. That alone explains the importance for us janitors & janitorial staff!
