Office Cleaning
Reliable cleaning for professional workplaces across Macarthur.
Routine and individually arranged office cleaning for local businesses, professional premises and suitable commercial workplaces, with cleaning requirements agreed around the way your workplace operates.
A cleaner workplace without disrupting the working day.
Offices have different requirements from homes. Staff movement, shared facilities, workstations, kitchens, bathrooms, meeting rooms and client-facing areas all need to be considered when establishing an appropriate cleaning routine.
Glaive can arrange office cleaning around the workplace, including suitable before-hours, daytime or after-hours arrangements where access and scheduling allow.
Cleaning for different workplaces
Glaive focuses on suitable local offices and commercial environments where the cleaning requirements can be clearly established and safely delivered.
Small offices
Routine cleaning for smaller workplaces, professional offices and local businesses requiring dependable ongoing service.
Professional premises
Cleaning for suitable offices with reception areas, meeting rooms, workspaces, staff facilities and client-facing areas.
Commercial workplaces
Individually assessed cleaning for suitable commercial premises where the required work and site conditions fall within Glaive's service scope.
What can office cleaning include?
Depending on the agreed workplace cleaning plan:
- Vacuuming and floor cleaning
- Reception and waiting areas
- Meeting and conference rooms
- Accessible general surfaces
- Staff kitchens and tea rooms
- Bathrooms and toilets
- Bins and ordinary workplace waste
- Accessible internal glass and mirrors
- Doors and accessible touch surfaces
- General workplace tidying where agreed
Workstations and desks
Offices frequently contain computers, documents, personal items and equipment that should not simply be moved by a cleaner without an agreed procedure.
Glaive can clean accessible desk and workstation surfaces where authorised, while respecting workplace instructions concerning documents, electronic equipment and personal items.
Clear-desk arrangements
Where detailed workstation cleaning is required, businesses may choose to implement a clear-desk arrangement before scheduled cleaning.
Restricted areas
Areas containing confidential information, specialist equipment or restricted access can be excluded or handled according to agreed workplace instructions.
Access, keys and workplace security
Office cleaning may involve access to premises when employees are absent. Access arrangements therefore need to be clearly established before services begin.
Access arrangements
Entry procedures, authorised cleaning areas and building access requirements are agreed with the client before unattended or after-hours work begins.
Keys & access devices
Any keys, access cards, codes or other access arrangements provided for service delivery are handled according to the agreed client instructions.
Restricted information
Glaive does not access, read, relocate or handle confidential documents, files or restricted workplace materials unless this is specifically necessary for the agreed service and authorised by the client.
Setting up office cleaning
Tell us about the workplace
Provide the location, approximate size, number of staff, facilities and areas requiring cleaning.
Assess the requirements
Glaive considers the cleaning scope, frequency, access, working hours and any site-specific requirements.
Agree the cleaning plan
Cleaning tasks, priorities, access arrangements and service frequency are established before ongoing cleaning begins.
Review as needed
Regular cleaning arrangements can be reviewed as the workplace, staffing or cleaning priorities change.
Regular office cleaning
Offices requiring ongoing cleaning can establish a regular service schedule based on the workplace and its actual needs.
The cleaning plan can identify routine tasks for every visit together with less frequent work that may be rotated through the schedule.
This avoids spending every visit on lower-priority tasks while important workplace areas receive insufficient attention.
A cleaning plan may identify:
- Priority areas for every visit
- Kitchen and staff-room requirements
- Bathroom cleaning requirements
- Floor-care requirements
- Waste and recycling arrangements
- Meeting and reception areas
- Workstation cleaning arrangements
- Periodic accessible glass cleaning
- Areas excluded from the service
- Access and locking procedures
Working safely in your workplace
Commercial premises can contain workplace-specific hazards, equipment and access requirements that are not present in ordinary residential cleaning.
Relevant site conditions should therefore be communicated before services commence.
- Workplace induction requirements should be identified before the first service where applicable.
- Restricted or controlled-access areas must be clearly identified.
- Known hazards relevant to the cleaning work must be communicated.
- Specialist equipment should not be moved, operated or cleaned unless this forms part of the agreed service and can be undertaken safely.
- Emergency, alarm, access and locking procedures relevant to after-hours attendance should be established beforehand.
- Glaive may stop or decline work where an unexpected hazard makes the agreed activity unsafe to continue.
Office cleaning arranged around your workplace
Office cleaning requirements can vary considerably according to workplace size, occupancy, facilities, cleaning frequency and access arrangements.
Useful information includes:
- Business location and type of premises
- Approximate floor area
- Approximate number of employees using the workplace
- Number of bathrooms
- Kitchen, tea-room or staff facilities
- Meeting rooms and reception areas
- Flooring types
- Required cleaning frequency
- Preferred cleaning days and times
- Before-hours, daytime or after-hours preference
- Parking and building access arrangements
- Alarm, key or access-control requirements where applicable
- Any restricted or excluded areas
- Any site-specific induction or safety requirements
An onsite assessment may be appropriate before establishing an ongoing commercial cleaning arrangement.
Clear service boundaries
- Office cleaning is limited to the areas and tasks agreed with the client.
- Confidential documents, files and personal belongings are not routinely handled or reorganised.
- Computers, servers, specialist electronics and other sensitive equipment are not dismantled, moved or internally cleaned as part of ordinary office cleaning.
- Restricted areas are entered only where Glaive has been expressly authorised to do so.
- Hazardous substances, specialist industrial contamination, biological hazards and other specialist remediation work are outside ordinary office cleaning.
- High-access work and specialist work-at-height cleaning are excluded unless separately assessed and appropriate arrangements are in place.
- Glaive does not accept responsibility for securing confidential material that has been left exposed in areas authorised for cleaning.
- Any keys, cards, codes or other access arrangements provided to Glaive are for authorised service access only.
- Additional work outside the agreed cleaning plan is discussed before it is undertaken.
