In post-lockdown environments, you need systematic processes to ensure an appropriate level of cleanliness as well as a workforce you can rely on. Let’s explore the varying demands of cleaning services and how hap offers the workforce solution to meet them.   

COVID cleaning

Don’t let the numbers fool you – COVID-19 hasn’t disappeared. And while mitigating strides have been taken to limit the effects of the virus, a huge health risk remains. Without the assured safety of your staff and customers, your business could suffer the consequences.

You can achieve a COVID-safe site with the latest portable sanitisation and decontamination technology, harnessed by well-trained specialists. Electrostatic fogging efficiently covers all areas of your space with the utmost sanitisation quality. The speed and effectiveness of such processes not only supports the demands of maintaining a safe environment – it benefits the busy schedule of a functioning venue too. 

Routine cleaning

Safety aside, the standard of cleaning personnel on your premises should never be overlooked. While the skills of a cleaner may be relatively universal, the challenges of your business are unique. Your on-site cleaners should be trustworthy, presentable and representative of your brand. 

After all, your core staff and customers are likely to be in the same vicinities as your cleaners. So you need to ensure that new members of the team (including temps) have a strong sense of brand awareness and have instilled your values. Whether it’s understanding technology for remote checks or auditing spaces for quality assurance with pre-approval photos, hap will ensure our staff are equipped for the job

We appreciate that, in order to give the best service, it all comes down to knowing the client and determining what requirements are most important to you.
