COVID-19 Prevention and Emergency Disinfection Cleaning in The Workplace

COVID-19 Prevention And Emergency Disinfection Cleaning in The Workplace

Along with regular hand washing, routine cleaning and disinfecting in the workplace is extremely important to help prevent infection and spread of COVID-19. At Cleanstart, our professionally trained cleaning technicians provide comprehensive, workplace cleaning and disinfection services for COVID-19 prevention as well as emergency services for confirmed COVID-19 infection cases.

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the following steps should be followed if someone in your office or facility has tested positive for COVID-19:  

• Close off areas used by the person who is sick. It isn’t necessary to close operations entirely if the infected area(s) can be closed off.  
• If possible, open outside doors and windows to increase air circulation in the area.
• Wait 24 hours before you clean or disinfect. If 24 hours is not feasible, wait as long as possible.
• All areas used by the infected person should be cleaned and disinfected with EPA-registered disinfectants such as offices, bathrooms, common areas, and shared electronic equipment like tablets, touch screens, keyboards, remote controls, and ATM machines.
• Use a vacuum equipped with high-efficiency particular air (HEPA) filter. Do not vacuum a room or space that has people in it. Wait until the room or space is empty to vacuum, such as at night, for common spaces, or during the day for private rooms. Consider temporarily turning off room fans and the central HVAC system that services the room or space, so that particles that escape from vacuuming will not circulate throughout the facility.
• Once the area has been appropriately disinfected, it can be opened for use. Employees without close contact with the infected person can return to work immediately after disinfection. 
• Continue routine cleaning and disinfection. This includes everyday practices that businesses and communities normally use to maintain a healthy environment.

Workplace COVID-19 Infection – Next Steps  

If someone in your office or facility has been infected with COVID-19, here are some next steps:

• Call Cleanstart as soon as possible to set up an emergency cleaning and disinfection service visit.
• If possible, close off areas visited by the infected individual(s) and open outside doors and windows to increase air circulation in the area.
• After 12-24 hours, our professional cleaning technicians will clean and disinfect all areas.
• In most cases, we will recommend electrostatic spraying using an EPA-registered disinfectant solution with a broad-spectrum kill claim, which can be done quickly and efficiently.
• Employees can re-enter the facility within 2 hours after completion of electrostatic spraying.
