The Importance of Cleaning Your Office Kitchen

David Whan • 21 February 2019

We agree with Miele!

As part of its new ProfiLine Dishwasher launch, Miele commissioned an independent survey with Sapio Research. The survey of 500 office workers found that organisations could face difficulties retaining and recruiting new talent, if they can’t provide high quality, well maintained and clean kitchen facilities.

The research revealed that dirty office kitchens are causing workplace rifts and disrupting performance, with 9 out of 10 workers surveyed wanting improved facilities.

Unwashed dishes, grimy work surfaces, dirty unhygienic appliances and overflowing bins are leaving many UK office staff feeling disgusted with their colleagues. 76% would hang a sign in the kitchen while 41% would ‘out’ a colleague in front of other employees and 55% would report a culprit to management.

At It’s Clean, we understand that a freshly cleaned office kitchen creates a healthy working environment and is a positive way for your staff to start their day.

In your office kitchen our professional cleaning teams ensure that:

  • All appliances including, dishwashers, hobs, ovens, microwaves, fridges etc are fully sanitised, both inside and outside
  • All surfaces including worktops, tables, chairs etc are sanitised
  • Internal windows are cleaned
  • All bins are emptied
  • Floors are hygienically mopped

It’s Clean Ltd, has joined the Carlisle-based Orian Solutions Group, marking a major step in its continued growth and diversification. It’s Clean has been operating across North and West Yorkshire for 26 years and has clients in a wide range of sectors including offices, schools, GPs, care homes, manufacturing, hospitality and events. Based in Carlisle, Orian Solutions is jointly owned by Westmorland & Furness Council and Cumberland Council and provides contract cleaning and food services, predominantly to clients in the public sector. Orian has recently secured major multi-year contracts in the police and fire sectors, while It’s Clean continues to grow through new partnerships in the charity and insurance sectors. David Whan, Managing Director of It’s Clean Ltd, said the move would bring together Orian’s strong governance, service quality, and commitment to social value and It’s Clean’s commercial experience, enhancing the Group’s ability to deliver flexible, high-quality facilities services across both public and private sectors across the North of England. He said: “Orian’s wealth of experience in the public sector and standards of governance mean It’s Clean can now compete in new sectors. “When I met their new CEO, John Donnison, it didn’t take long to see the fantastic synergies between our businesses, and we reached an agreement to join the Orian Group within days.” Mr Whan said the move to join forces would bring additional benefits to long-standing employees of It’s Clean who would now benefit from Orian’s Pluxee discount card giving discounts across a variety of retailers, services and everyday spending. The deal was completed on September 1, with Orian Group acquiring the shares in It’s Clean Ltd, bringing together two trusted northern service providers with shared values of quality, reliability and community focus. John Donnison, CEO of Orian Solutions, commented: “It’s Clean Ltd has a terrific heritage and brand in the Yorkshire commercial cleaning market and brings a new dynamic to the Orian Group. We’re only six weeks in and already seeing huge mutual benefits. “By combining our strengths, we are well-positioned to become the commercial cleaning and contract catering provider of choice for businesses and organisations across the North of England, serving a broad customer base, supporting schools, councils, emergency services, charities and commercial clients across the North of England.”  The It’s Clean office, branding and customer contact will remain the same, and David and his team will continue to lead the business, ensuring continuity as they build forward within the Orian Group.
