GREEN CLEANING IN THE WORKPLACE

KEEPING THE WORKPLACE HEALTHY

Studies show that as much as 30% of the U.S. work force is being effective by multiple health problems that are caused by Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). Volatile organic compounds, such as those found in carpet and furniture can drastically affect air circulation, create poor lighting, produce mold growth, and disrupt temperature variances. This can then cause respiratory problems, skin rashes, lethargy, headaches, and many other health problems. Since the 1960's, when SBS was discovered, there have been many independent studies that have shown the effect green cleaning has on creating a healthier environment for workers:

  • Reduced employee sick days or absences
  • Healthier employees
  • Lower operating costs
  • Greater access to governmental financial incentives
  • Positive environmental impacts

Green cleaning services are just as affective and generally not more expensive then traditional cleaning services.
