    Using green products to clean your space or room is very beneficial and important, especially in this time where the world is exposed to harsh climate or we can say climate change. The opposite of the green products are products that is laced with very harsh chemicals, example ammonia. Lets look at the side effects of ammonia should you come into contact with it. Exposure to high concentration of ammonia can cause:

    • Irritation to the eyes, nose and respiratory track
    • irritation of the skin
    • Can result in blindness
    • Lung damage or death

    When you use green products you:

    • Save the environment
    • you improve on your air quality because there is no smell after the use of any green product.
    • It is far less expensive, you can get them for your kitchen cupboard, products like baking soda, olive oil, vinegar are very reasonable and  less expensive items found in your cupboard.
    • Last Longer- the effects of green cleaning products last longer than the ordinary cleaning products, that we use from day to day.
    • It is safe especially if you have children around your home. Eco friendly also 

    Choose to go green, it help you to save a whole lot on your wallet

    Importance of great customer service. Just like you are in a business they are too. Business rely on your service to keep their business up and running, just like you need their business to keep your business running. Remember, if they don't bring in enough business or fail you are out of a customer. So, it is very important that you provide a strong and great service to your customers so those businesses can also provide the same service to their customers. Customer service is like a domino affect, it triples down.

    “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

    In other words, it is better to stop something bad from happening than it is to deal with it after it has happened.

    As janitorial professionals, we have a duty to prevent the spread of infection and to also protect ourselves in the process.  The best way to do that is through education of the Bloodborne Policies and Procedures.  Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is our last line of defense.

    In order to protect employees from Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP), it is important to create a BBP Exposure Control Plan and implement policies and procedures for them to follow.  The BBP should be reviewed annually and updated as required.

    Bloodborne Pathogens are microorganisms that may be present in human blood and cause disease such as HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C.  There are also other potentially infectious materials which include other body fluids, human tissues and cultures.  Since we are not certain of the infection status, we should assume that all materials are infectious and MUST follow Universal Precautions.

    The presence of known biohazards must be communicated via warning signs and labels, as well as color coded containers.  The potential of occupational transmission includes puncture injuries such as needlesticks, scalpels, breaks in the skin or exposure via mucous membranes (ie. Eyes, nose or mouth)

    In the event of exposure involving BBP, one should immediately implement the Post Exposure Protocol.

    Optimum Cleaning, although not fully in operation yet, has made plans to implement a product line that is certified green as is the company that uses them. When selecting products for our company, our focus is on minimizing or eliminating products that contain chemicals generally recognized as unsafe.

    Toxins in the products that are available in todays market can cause so many acute and chronic health effects; it would be a disservice to our customers if we used products that could actually cause them harm, while attempting at cleaning their spaces to make them safer.

    Optimum Cleaning recognizes that we have a commitment to protecting the health and well being of our customers as well as the health of our planet. Environmentally friendly products that clean and disinfect as good or better than conventional commercial products are the preferred method.

    Finding a green cleaning service that is certified through the IJCSA and that is accepting new clients is simple. Check the Green Cleaning Service Directory at: https://www.ijcsa.org/Green-Cleaning-Services
