How I'll implement green cleaning into my cleaning business.

24 Apr 2018 11:04 AM | Anonymous

After going over the green cleaning certification material, reading posts from my peers and researching on the side, I feel confident I'll be able to implement green cleaning practices into my own business. Although I feel most people will understand and appreciate my business' efforts into going green, it may not necessarily be their first choice. Some facilities may require extensive time into cleaning up, which would call for conventional cleaning tools to satisfy the client in a timely manner.

However, to implement green cleaning programs I'd first start with training of staff, most importantly. They're the integral part of my team and should know procedures and tools to offer green cleaning. I'd hand out simple material to go over with them, such as hazards of conventional cleaning products, natural green substitutions, and how to use them to offer a good service. We'd research other ways we can benefit the environment and provide fantastic cleaning, the end goal is to boost their morale, while helping both the client and the environment.

The IJCSA Green-Cleaning certification is crucial to implementing these steps into my business. It's important to have a fundamental base on why green cleaning is important, effective, and how to use it in your company. My customers will be safer knowing my business is IJCSA Green-certified, which is certainly a boost from the competition in my area. The bottom line would be: train my staff and explain to my customers about why green cleaning is important and effective, and provide healthier facilities for the people they care about.
