How to Prepare Your Office for Flu Season
Keep Your Team Healthy & Productive with These Expert Tips
When the flu comes, your office can turn into a hot spot for germs fast. Some easy moves can keep your team safe, keep work up, and cut down on sick days. At Glendale Cleaning Services, we are ready to help you make a clean, well work place all year—more so in top cold and flu times.
🧴 1. Clean Often-Touched Spots Often
Look past desks and floors. Key spots such as door handles, lift buttons, light switches, shared keyboards, phones, and breakroom areas hold many germs. Make a plan to clean these areas often, more so if they are used by many.
💡 Quick tip: Ask the people who clean, to use high grade disinfectant that can kill flu germs.
👃 2 Impove indoor air quality
The flu bug may stay in the air, more so in tight, stuffy places. Check that your air system works well and change filters often.
Think about using air purifiers or humidifiers to the air—dry air helps flu bugs live and move around.
🧼 3. Set Up Clean Spots
Put hand sanitizer where people can see them by doors, meeting room, and shared space. Fill up restrooms and kitchen places with soap, paper towels and disinfectant wipes.
🛑 Ask all at work to keep their desks sanitized and clean, also to sanitize shared equipment daily.
📅 4. Increase Professional Cleanings
During flu season, upping your cleaning schedule—especially in high-traffic zones—can make a big difference. Glendale Cleaning Services offers customizable plans to meet your needs.
Whether it’s daily touch-point disinfection or deeper weekly cleaning, consistency is key.
👨⚕️ 5. Push a “Stay Home If Sick” culture
Tell people at your work to stay home if they feel sick. If you can, let them work from home. Make it clear that their health is the most important thing.
Show them that you have implemented good cleaning practises to keep them safe.
