During cold and flu season, the health and well-being of your employees become paramount concerns for maintaining a productive and thriving workplace. The spread of influenza can have a significant impact on your team’s efficiency, leading to increased absenteeism and compromised operations. Ensuring effective flu prevention strategies within your business – whether it’s an office, school or medical facility – is essential to safeguard your workforce and sustain business momentum during these challenging months.
Partnering with a trusted commercial cleaning provider like Coverall® is one of the most effective steps you can take to reduce the spread of germs and promote a healthier workplace.
How the Flu Spreads at Work
Flu viruses spread through droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks. These droplets can land on frequently touched items like desks, doorknobs and shared equipment. The virus can survive for hours, making it easy to transfer to others through hand contact, especially when people touch their eyes, nose or mouth.
The result? One sick employee can lead to multiple absences, reducing your team’s productivity.
Why Office Cleaning Is Critical During Flu Season
Routine commercial cleaning during cold and flu season plays a key role in reducing the spread of illness. Surfaces must be cleaned and disinfected regularly to protect your team. This includes elevator buttons, bathrooms, light switches and breakroom areas.
Partnering with a trusted provider like Coverall ensures your facility receives professional-grade cleaning services.
