This Health and Safety Policy sets out the standards and working practices followed by Cleaners Clapham to protect our employees, clients, visitors, contractors, and members of the public. Our cleaning services are delivered with a strong focus on safe methods of work, responsible use of products, and continuous improvement in health and safety performance.
Cleaners Clapham is committed to providing and maintaining safe and healthy working conditions, equipment, and systems of work for all employees. We aim to prevent accidents, injuries, and work-related ill health, and to manage health and safety risks in every location where our cleaning services are provided.
Our objectives are to identify hazards, assess risks, implement effective control measures, provide suitable information and training, and monitor our performance regularly. Health and safety considerations are integrated into our planning, scheduling, and delivery of all cleaning activities.
The management of Cleaners Clapham has overall responsibility for implementing this Health and Safety Policy. Management will ensure that appropriate resources are made available for safe working practices, including suitable equipment, personal protective equipment, training, and supervision.
Managers are responsible for carrying out risk assessments, reviewing safe systems of work, and communicating relevant safety information to employees. They must investigate accidents, near misses, or incidents and take corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
Every employee has a duty to take reasonable care of their own health and safety and that of others who may be affected by their work. Employees must cooperate with Cleaners Clapham in meeting health and safety requirements and following all instructions and procedures provided.
Employees must use equipment and cleaning products as instructed, wear the required personal protective equipment, report hazards or defects, and promptly notify their supervisor of any accident, injury, near miss, or unsafe condition encountered during cleaning duties.
Cleaners Clapham conducts risk assessments for typical cleaning tasks, including domestic cleaning, office cleaning, end of tenancy cleaning, and deep cleaning services. These assessments identify hazards such as slippery floors, moving equipment, manual handling, chemical exposure, and electrical risks.
Control measures are implemented to minimise these risks, such as using warning signs for wet floors, safe handling procedures for equipment, proper lifting techniques, and safe storage of chemicals. Employees are informed of any specific hazards and controls relevant to the premises they are working in.
Safe use of cleaning products is a core part of our health and safety approach. Cleaners Clapham ensures that all substances used are suitable for professional cleaning and are used strictly in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and relevant guidance.
Cleaning products are clearly labelled and stored securely when not in use. Employees receive training in the correct dilution, application, and disposal of products, and are instructed never to mix chemicals. Where necessary, protective gloves, masks, or eye protection are provided and must be worn as directed.
All equipment supplied by Cleaners Clapham, including vacuum cleaners, floor machines, and other tools, is maintained in good working order. Faulty or damaged equipment must be reported immediately and taken out of use until repaired or replaced.
Employees are trained in the safe operation of each type of equipment they use. Cables are routed safely to reduce the risk of trips, and equipment is switched off and unplugged when not in use. Only authorised and trained personnel may carry out maintenance or adjustments to equipment.
Manual handling tasks such as moving furniture, carrying cleaning supplies, or operating machinery can present risks if not managed correctly. Cleaners Clapham provides guidance on safe lifting techniques, load limits, and the use of lifting aids whenever available.
Employees should avoid moving excessively heavy items alone and must seek assistance or use appropriate equipment. We promote personal safety awareness, particularly for staff working alone or outside standard hours, and require adherence to agreed lone working procedures where applicable.
Slips, trips, and falls are among the most common risks in cleaning work. To reduce these hazards, Cleaners Clapham ensures that wet floor signs or barriers are used whenever mopping or washing floors. Spills are cleaned promptly and floors are allowed adequate time to dry.
Cables, hoses, and tools are kept as tidy as possible, and employees are instructed to maintain clear walkways. Any flooring defects, loose carpets, or damaged steps noticed during work are reported immediately to the relevant contact at the premises and to management.
Cleaners Clapham recognises the importance of good hygiene practices to protect both employees and clients. Staff are expected to maintain high standards of personal hygiene, including appropriate hand washing and the correct use of protective clothing when required.
Where work involves cleaning sanitary areas or handling waste, additional precautions are followed. These include using suitable gloves, avoiding direct contact with sharps or hazardous materials, and using appropriate disposal procedures for waste. Any concerns regarding potential biological or health hazards must be reported without delay.
All employees receive induction training covering key health and safety topics relevant to cleaning services, including hazard awareness, safe use of chemicals, correct handling of equipment, and emergency procedures. Additional training is provided when new equipment, products, or methods are introduced.
Supervisors monitor working practices to ensure procedures are followed correctly and provide ongoing guidance and support. Health and safety information is communicated regularly, and employees are encouraged to raise any concerns or suggestions for improving safety.
All accidents, incidents, and near misses that occur during cleaning work must be reported as soon as possible. Cleaners Clapham will record these events, investigate causes, and implement measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. Where required, incidents will be reported to the relevant authorities in line with legal obligations.
Employees are briefed on emergency arrangements at the premises where they are working, including fire evacuation routes, alarm points, and assembly areas. Staff must follow all site-specific emergency procedures. Access to first aid provisions is arranged in cooperation with clients, and employees must report any injury sustained during work activities.
Cleaners Clapham monitors health and safety performance through inspections, incident reporting, and feedback from employees and clients. Findings are used to update risk assessments, refine procedures, and improve training materials.
This Health and Safety Policy is reviewed regularly and whenever there are significant changes in legislation, our services, or working practices. Updated versions are communicated to all employees to ensure that safe working remains at the heart of every cleaning service we provide.
