Keep Your Office Healthy This Cold & Flu Season: Why Professional Janitorial Services Matter More Than Ever

As cold and flu season approaches, maintaining a clean, germ-free office isn’t just a matter of appearance it’s a matter of health, productivity, and professionalism. Every year, seasonal illnesses sweep through workplaces, causing absenteeism, low morale, and preventable business disruptions. The question isn’t if your office will be affected it’s how well prepared you are.

At Royalty Janitorial Services, we specialize in keeping offices and commercial spaces healthy, productive, and spotless through proven cleaning protocols that reduce illness transmission and keep your team performing at their best.

The Real Impact of Poor Office Sanitation

Research shows that the cleanliness of your workplace directly affects employee health, performance, and satisfaction:

• The average office desk harbors 400x more bacteria than a toilet seat. (University of Arizona study)

• Viruses like the flu can survive on surfaces for up to 48 hours—especially on keyboards, phones, and door handles.

• A study by ISSA (The Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association) found that consistent professional cleaning can reduce office illness by up to 46% and improve productivity by up to 12%.

• Businesses lose an estimated $225 billion annually in productivity due to sick days, many caused by preventable office-borne illnesses. (CDC data)

These numbers tell the story: a clean office isn’t just about looks it’s about protecting your people and your profits.

Our Proven Cleaning Protocols for a Healthier Workplace

At Royalty Janitorial Services, we don’t just clean we sanitize and protect. Our janitorial procedures are built around CDC and EPA-recommended standards to keep your business operating safely during cold and flu season.

Here’s how we do it:

1. High-Touch Disinfection Focus

We pay special attention to areas that spread germs the fastest door handles, light switches, elevator buttons, phones, keyboards, restrooms, and breakroom surfaces. We use EPA-registered disinfectants with proven efficacy against flu and cold viruses, applied with proper dwell times for maximum germ kill.

2. HEPA Filtration & Air Quality Support

Our vacuum systems are equipped with HEPA filters, capturing allergens and airborne particles that contribute to illness. We also dust vents and surfaces to improve indoor air quality and reduce respiratory irritants.

3. Restroom Sanitation Protocols

Restrooms are one of the biggest hygiene pain points in offices. We deep clean, disinfect, and restock daily to ensure your facility reflects the level of professionalism your business represents.

4. Cross-Contamination Prevention

Color-coded microfiber systems and dedicated tools for different areas ensure we never cross-contaminate surfaces between restrooms, offices, and kitchens.

5. Regular Quality Inspections

Our supervisors perform scheduled quality checks to maintain consistency and ensure your space meets the Royalty standard every single visit.

6. Employee Safety & Training

All of our janitorial staff are trained in infection control cleaning techniques, personal protective equipment (PPE) use, and OSHA safety standards.
