Reducing Sick Days: The Role of Clean Workspaces
Ah, sick days—something every manager dreads. One person comes in with a cough; before you know it, half the office is out of commission. But what if I told you that keeping your workspace clean could help stop the spread of those pesky germs and keep your team healthy? Spoiler alert: it can! At Fair Company, we believe that a clean workspace is your first line of defence against office-wide sniffles.
Germy Hotspots You Might Be Missing: Sure, you’ve probably got a hand sanitiser pump at reception, but what about those spots no one thinks about—like the office microwave handle or the shared printer? Studies show that shared equipment is a breeding ground for bacteria, and if you’re not cleaning them regularly, you’re practically inviting germs to set up camp. That’s where we come in. Our team sanitises these less obvious spots, reducing the chance of cross-contamination. For more tips on germ-busting, check out Health Direct.
Don’t Forget the Air Quality! It’s not just surfaces you must worry about—airborne germs are a big player in spreading illness. Poor ventilation can trap bacteria and viruses inside, leading to higher disease rates among employees. Fair Company’s cleaning services don’t just stop at wiping down desks; we also care for air vents and ducts, ensuring the air you breathe is clean and fresh. Want to breathe easier at work?

The Science of Clean = Less Sick Days: Research shows that regular cleaning reduces sick days by up to 23%—no small number if you’re trying to keep your business running smoothly. It’s simple: fewer germs, fewer sniffles, more productivity. So why wouldn’t you invest in keeping your office sparkling clean? If you’re on the fence, let’s chat about how we can make your workspace a haven of health!
