As the owner of a Cleaning Company, I have the responsibility to educate my employees and myself in order to give a safe service to my community.

We are living a difficult time worldwide, education on how to handle this situations means follow rules and procedures every time we are completing a project. Small things like no eating, drinking, smoking nor applying lip balm while working will prevent illnesses. As part of the standards, training is basic with OSHA to understand the proper clean up and avoid a chain of infections like washing your hands before and after a contact is made with a client, using protective equipment like gloves, glasses and mask.

We want employees to be safe that is why we have to create an exposure control which will include: A determination of employee exposure by job classification. Implementation of varius methods of exposure control. Information on the Hepatitis B vaccination. Communication of hazards to employees and training requirements. Recorkeeping. Procedures for evaluating circumstances surrrounding exposure incidents. Post-exposure evaluation and follow-up. Implementation methods for these elements.

Customer service is most important for your business always be aware of the 3 things every customer wants.

Bloodborne pathogens are pathogenic micoorganisms that are present in human blood and can cause infections and include: HBV, HBC and HIV. OSHA requires knowledge and application for universal precautions for cleaning companies - it could be life or death. Bodily fluids such as blood, vomit and saliva can contain bloodborne pathogens. According to the CDC, universal precautions says to use PPE to minimize exposure and to treat all fluids as infected. 

At all times we must assume that all bodily fluids are contaminated. Always wear the right PPE for the job. Routinely inspect PPE to be sure they are in good condition. PPE includes fask masks, gowns, and gloves. It is important to never eat, drink or smoke in areas that we may be exposed to bloodborne pathogens. Never reuse sponges or towels that have been used to clean up of body fluids. 

Always use color-coded and labeled disposal for laundry that is used and contaminated. Must be red or orange if transported to another location and placed into the bag or container within the area that it was used. It is important to use bleach or another EPA approved cleaning agent to thoroughly clean the area. If exposure occurs contact immediate supervisor and they will implement their plan in place. Always remember to wash hands and keep safety at the forefront of your mind! 

Having good customer service in the cleaning industry is extremely important. The IJCSA members  practice good customer services on a daily basis. We put customers and clients first and make customer service our number one priority.  

Good customer service starts with becoming aware of what the customer is dealing with. Listening to the customer is he most important part of customer service. Being clear with customers is the best way to handle issues. All the customer wants is to be able to explain what they are going through and want to know we are here to help and to fix the situation at hand. 

In the areas I work in it’s very Important to be prepared to come in contact with bloodborne pathogens in many ways.  Often in the confinement’s of the passenger compartments of vehicles where blood an bodily fluids are hard to see.  I wear as much PPE as possible, and I treat everything around me as if it’s contaminated.  

When cleaning I make sure I’m not only using the proper chemicals but I have to test on many surfaces to not cause further damages.  In many cases it’s impossible to clean certain items that are large and often heavy with many sharp edges.  Labeling and disposal of these items is very important to prevent others from mistaking it for “normal” trash.

In conclusion always follow the universal precautions, use and inspect your PPE, have and use proper labels, bags ,and containers.  Clean your equipment when done , avoid contact with your mouth ,eyes or cuts and scrapes until you’ve washed and disinfected.  If anything happens follow employers exposure plan.
