Environmental – Why Leisure & Licensed Trade Require Professional Cleaners

Two thousand years, ago, a mysterious man named Jesus declared that the poor will always be among us. That was an accurate observation. However, he should have finished the thought by declaring that the wealthy, likewise, will also always be among us. And that’s not necessarily an evil thing.

As the wealthy become wealthier, to a point, so do the rest of us. That’s the result of a material “arms race” that we all participate in. It begins when the wealthy, in the effort to distinguish themselves from the plebes, obtain or create goods that only they can have- “luxury” goods. Possession ignites desire among others, and demand for those goods spreads beyond the wealthy. And where there is demand, there will be suppliers. Either the original purveyors will expand their business by increasing the original supply or one-off’s, or competitors will create knockoffs. Either way, the supply expands, prices drop, and the once-rare items become commonplace and affordable (or lost in a sea of imitators). The wealthy then hunt for new symbols of status. In the meantime, the common person becomes accustomed to a slightly elevated lifestyle, and the cycle of acquisition begins anew.

You need to look for a company whose first point of contact is a visit of the site to understand your needs. They should not provide a quotation until this point to ensure you both know the scope of the work. In this quotation, good cleaning companies provide a fully specified quotation along with a Risk Assessment, a Health and Safety Policy Statement and Insurance documentation. A breakdown of the costs helps you to understand the costs involved so it helps if the cleaning companies’ pricing is fully transparent.

As nature passes from becoming abundant to scarce; as we face unprecedented threats from climate change; as the world’s materially wealthy feel impoverished in their social relationships, and as the bulk of the world’s people become acquainted with democracy and higher living standards, the perfect storm for re-defining luxury is rapidly brewing. Accordingly, a look at the latest blogs and articles on luxury reveal a fresh and welcome trend: “luxury” is moving away from solely being about having. Consciousness about HOW goods are made and obtained, and what side effects they will have on others or the environment, is creeping in. That gorgeous piece of jewelry, for example – is it made from recycled metal, or at least from a mine with proper environmental and labor standards in place? Did that meat come from factory-farmed cattle, or from grass-fed animals raised on predator-friendly ranches? (Or better yet – is it really veg meat from organic, family-farmed soy?) Is that gorgeous plank floor made from old-growth wood, or from forest-certified or reclaimed timber?

What about all those old clothes that your kids have grown out of? Do you have a friend or neighbour that has young kids that would be grateful to receive a load of clothes? Many of us are happy not to have to spend a fortune on clothes that are just going to get grubby and worn through. If you don’t know anyone personally, get them down to the local charity shop if they are still fit to wear. If they are on the grubby side, what about using them as household cloths. Saves you from having to buy cloths to clean your floors, windows or cars and you are prolonging the life of the use of the fabric. (Did you know that it takes about 800 litres of water to make a single T-shirt?)

For employees, a clean working environment firstly encourages pride in the work place. Your employees are likely to be spending most of their waking hours in your premises, so why wouldn’t you want to keep that place as fresh and motivating as possible? If your employees are expected to clean this area, the job will never be done as thoroughly or regularly as if you had hired that helping hand. Most companies will do their best to motivate their employees at a reasonable cost – external cleaning services are just one of those low-cost solutions that will provide such motivation
