Ways To Make Your Office Cleaner Feel Valued

Sheridan Smith usually draws attention for her acting skills, but many reviews have been mixed about her recent role as a cleaner in the ITV drama ‘Cleaning Up’.  However we think most striking of all were her remarks, during an interview, that cleaners she met at Canary Wharf were the ‘invisible workforce’, unnoticed by staff at the offices where they clean.

Recent data suggests more than 700,000 people are employed in the Cleaning Industry. Cleaning Operatives provide a vital service to ensure business premises are kept clean and hygienic, often working unsociable hours to ensure minimal disruption.

If you employ cleaning staff at your premises, we suggest 3 simple ways of making them feel appreciated and part of your team.
