Cleaning Services Coral Spring - Personal Protective Equipment

You may have noticed that the people who clean your home are nearly always wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) such as aprons, heavy rubber gloves, hair covers, and sometimes even protective goggles. But have you ever wondered why?

First of all, it’s nothing personal. Our house cleaners always wear the same PPE for every home they clean. The purpose is to protect both themselves and you from dangers.

Hazard Protection

Cleaning up places like bathrooms, kitchens, and other places where there tends to be a lot of moisture means that the risk of bacteria, viruses, and other harmful germs is higher. Even the cleanest home can easily accumulate millions of germ cells.

Wearing protective gear creates a barrier between these potentially harmful germs and our workers. Because they spend nearly their entire work day exposed to these dangers, it’s important that they maintain a constant protective barrier.

Then there are the household chemicals our cleaners use to clean and sanitize your home. While these are safe for your home, many contain chemicals such as chlorine bleach or lye that can be potentially harmful if it comes into contact with skin or gets in the eyes, nose, mouth or ears.

Physical Hazards

There also are physical hazards our cleaners face. These can include such things as broken glass, sharp plastic, and even hot stoves.

Wearing protective gear can help keep our workers safe and minimize the risk of injury from physical hazards.

Protecting You, Your Family and Your Home

The protective gear we wear also protects your home from potentially harmful substances being transferred between homes. For example, people with severe allergies — such as to dog hair or nuts — could be put in danger should those substances accidentally be carried into their home on our clothing, skin or hair.

PPE can be wiped clean and sanitized after every home cleaning to minimize the risk of cross-contamination.
