Cleaning Leaders: Keeping Employees Health in Mind

Ben Walker

Cleaning for health needs to start with making sure the people we manage have a healthy and safe environment. We need to focus on the types of products we are using but all the PPE provided, the ergonomics of equipment, the policies and procedures set up, and the overall self-care of our employees. A leader is someone who, whether by choice or by necessity, can give themselves entirely to their community. As leaders, we owe it to our crews and colleagues, but most importantly, to ourselves to keep healthy and strong. Everyone's quoting Dr. Berry these days, so I'll share one of my favorite things about health. "Health is a state of complete mental, physical, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." We clean. We clean for health. Remember that cleaning for health is for you, too.
