It makes no difference if you’re running a restaurant, an office, or an entertainment facility. Hundreds of different people may be coming and going from your facility each day at this time of year, so you must be especially cautious and take actions to improve cleaning standards to keep everyone safe.
The festive period is one of the most joyful times of the year, but your team has likely had a difficult year, so giving them with some well-deserved rest at your Christmas party is a terrific way to raise morale and say thank you.
With covid still being at the forefront of people’s minds, it’s more crucial than ever to ensure that your facility is a clean and safe workplace for both your employees and visitors. Their health and wellness are dependent on a clean and safe work environment to prevent germs from spreading. Make sure to try our top tips if you’re planning a Christmas party or if your facility hosts events.
Easy access to sanitisers and waste bins
Pre-plan the amount of rubbish bins available in your office; are they easily accessible and within reach? Are there enough bins to accommodate the Christmas party? Increasing the number of bins at your Christmas party will help your team members to conveniently dispose of rubbish while also preventing unnecessary waste from accumulating about the office, making clean-up that much easier.
During the Christmas party season, you’ll also want to make sure you have plenty of hand sanitiser on hand to prevent germs from spreading. Germs are transferred through contact with contaminated surfaces and through the air, therefore it’s critical to keep your workplace clean and sanitary, with sanitisation supplies readily available.
To avoid stains, be prepared for spills
Spills will almost certainly occur because your staff will be having a good time, socialising, and making the most of the office Christmas party. To avoid stains and bacteria, it’s better to be prepared rather than clean up the mess after the celebration. Make sure your workplace has the right solutions for dealing with food and drink spills so that your employees are safe, and stains and bacteria don’t spread if they’re left too long.
Plan ahead to avoid mess
The simplest way to avoid a mess at your Christmas party is to organise the area you have available. To begin, set up stations and clearly identify the specified places so that people know where to put their belongings, etc. Set aside a place for food and drinks, as well as bins for cans, bottles, and dinner plates. A structure like this will let your employees know where the trash cans are, as well as where the sanitisers and wipes are located, so they can clean up any spills.
Work with a cleaning service to eliminate the hassle of cleaning up
The notion of having to clean up all of that mess may be incredibly stressful when planning and hosting an office Christmas party. Plus, our helpful tips may not be enough to get your workplace back in shape, especially after a busy Christmas party.
Therefore, the easiest option would be to partner with a professional cleaning service. Which would allow you to rest and enjoy the party, knowing that after the festivities are over, your workstation will be spotless and ready to tackle another day of work.
