As winter quickly approaches with the potential for harsh weather conditions across the nation, it’s crucial for facility maintenance teams to prepare in advance. Effective facility management is essential for creating a safe and healthy environment where people can work, learn, and maintain their daily routines.
By implementing proper floorcare and pathogen control strategies, your building and its occupants will be well-equipped for the winter season ahead.
With freezing temperatures and melting snow, trip and fall hazards can become a serious concern. One of the simplest yet most effective ways to mitigate these risks is to install an entryway matting system.
Invest in high-quality scraper mats for both the exterior and interior of your entrances. These mats should be long enough to allow individuals to take 3 to 4 steps on them before stepping onto the regular flooring. Additionally, consider using wiper mats, anti-fatigue mats, and safety mats to cover all your floorcare safety needs.
Bonus Tip: Use deicers to effectively manage snow and ice, ensuring safe and accessible entrances.
This winter, illnesses like influenza, COVID-19, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are projected to circulate widely. Having effective cleaning strategies and supplies in place is vital for protecting your building’s occupants.
