This versatile clean as you go policy 113 assists businesses to establish and promote cleanliness or orderliness in the workplace and onsite. The policy aims to encourage employees and contractors to take responsibility for maintaining a clean and organised workplace by ensuring they clean up after themselves as they work.
This ‘clean as you go’ policy is suitable for any industry and lists the responsibilities that is expected from all employees and contractors while in the workplace and onsite.
It includes:
- keeping workstations and workplaces clean and tidy
- wiping or removing tools and equipment
- guidelines around waste disposal
- storing items in designed spots, and
- keeping walkways and emergency exits clear.
Encouraging employees and contractors to take responsibility for their workplace or site helps to reduce the workload of cleaning staff, whilst also promoting a safe and healthy work environment, reducing the risk of accidents, and improving overall productivity.
