Guidelines for Tidying the Office
Allianceselect hopes to assist you in maintaining a neat, clean, and germ-free workspace, whether you’re cleaning your home office or your desk at the office. The experts at The Maids can teach you how to keep your office neat and tidy.
The workplace is an ideal environment for the spread of disease. By keeping your work area clean and free of germs, you can stay focused and productive and reduce the likelihood of getting sick. Follow these steps to clean the grimiest areas of your office.
Standardized Cleaning Procedures for the Office
To ensure that every part of your office has been cleaned, or if you just want to divide up the cleaning responsibilities, use our office cleaning checklist. If you want everyone to pitch in, print out the PDF and stick it on the fridge; if you’re cleaning the office on your own, use this checklist to make sure you don’t forget anything.
Cleaning the Office
We don’t merely work while sitting at a desk for long periods of time. We constantly eat, sneeze, cough, touch, and spill. Home offices are a breeding ground for germs, and it’s no surprise. In addition to the pathogens, our chaotic lives also generate a lot of clutter and mess that needs to be cleaned up and organised.
- For a thorough cleaning, wipe everything thoroughly with a damp microfiber cloth. Get everything off your desk—files, calendars, staplers, and more—so you can clean it. Power strips, fan blades, window sills, the top of your monitor, and the tops of picture frames are just some of the places you shouldn’t forget to dust.
- Pursue the task from the highest point to the lowest. To fully vacuum your desk and the rest of your workspace, switch between the upholstery brush, the narrow attachment, and the carpet attachment. If you still see dust after dusting, check the areas you just dusted and pick up the stray particles with a vacuum.
- Every time we use the keyboard, mouse, or pick up the phone at our offices, we introduce new micro-bacteria colonies. Clean the keyboard, handset, and mouthpiece of the business phone in addition to the mouse.
- Consistency Schedule weekly or biweekly desk cleaning and organisation sessions in your planner. Establishing a cleaning practise will reduce the burden the next time you need to clean. Better still, put some disinfectant wipes beside your desk so you can give it a quick wipe down in between cleanings.
How to Set Up Your Office
Get your desk cleaned up and in order. Having a clean and uncluttered workstation may be very therapeutic. You will experience less stress and more output as a result.
- Get rid of extraneous items. It’s fine to have a few plants, photographs, or trinkets.
- Make your workspace into two separate “zones,” one for computer work and one for anything else.
- A workstation always requires a catchall for random office supplies. How about “trash drawer” as a description? Instead of stacking them in the corner, put them in a document tray or a file drawer.
- Electrical lines can be bundled together with zip ties to prevent a nest from forming.
- Keep a wastebasket or recycling can close to your work area to dispose of waste and used paper quickly and easily.
- Use stackable document trays to keep paperwork organised and out of the way, whether it be mail, documents requiring signatures, documents to be filed, etc.
- Climb up high. When you need more room but don’t have any more desk or drawer space, you can make use of the walls by mounting shelves or whiteboards.
Keyboard cleaning
Bacteria and muffin crumbs. I’m totally obsessed with all the little nooks and crannies in your keyboard. Make sure your laptop is turned off before cleaning it. Use these guidelines for cleaning your keyboard to avoid spreading germs:
- Get things moving! You may do this in the open air or even over a garbage can.
- To remove any residual crumbs or dust from in between the keys, blow compressed air through a can.
- Where can I find some compressed air if there is none? Just fold a sticky note in half with the sticky side out and see what happens. Put it to use by running it through the crevices of your keyboard to pick up crumbs.
- Clean the space between the keys by swiping cotton swabs dipped in alcohol.
- Clean the top of the keyboard by spraying disinfectant on a towel and wiping it down.
Cleaning Your Computer Display Screen
Help your tired eyes focus by ensuring that your screen is clean, and keep dust out of the vents in your monitor. Turn off your laptop and wipe down the keyboard and screen while you’re at it.
- You can disconnect the screen and clean it with a damp microfiber cloth.
- To get rid of dust in the vents, use a vacuum cleaner with an upholstery brush.
- Use a cloth sprayed with glass cleaner to wipe down the windows.
- The next step is to use compressed air to blow out any lingering dust that may have settled in the spaces between the wood’s planks.
Guidelines for Spotless Office Chair Maintenance
If you’re having trouble keeping your balance at work, maybe it’s time to replace your office chair.
- Find the cleaning instructions on the furniture’s tag.
- To get rid of the loose dirt and dust, use a vacuum with an upholstery brush.
- Clean any metal or plastic components with a microfiber cloth and an all-purpose cleaner.
- You can spot-clean the fabric of your cushions using a spray bottle with a few drops of dish soap if the material is water-resistant. This is the best way to clean your mesh or plastic office chair.
- When cleaning upholstery that can’t be submerged in water, combine 20 drops of essential oils with rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle. Put this to work to clean and sanitise the fabric.
- Some dish soap diluted in half a gallon of warm water is all that’s needed to clean leather office chairs. Apply this solution on a cloth and wipe the leather down, but don’t let it soak in. Applying a leather conditioner at the end will help keep the material in good shape.
- Apply some lithium grease or spray lubricant to any moving parts. Silicone spray is quite helpful.
