Hiring quality employees has been a struggle recently across many industries, and cleaning is certainly not exempt. In this section of the 2022 Facility Cleaning Decisions Management Survey, we asked managers in K/12 schools, colleges/universities, commercial, hospitality, government and healthcare facilities to reflect on their hiring experiences over the past year, along with expectations for the future:
Which employee issues have the biggest impact on your cleaning department?
Do you support employee certification/accreditation or offer advancement opportunities to your cleaning employees?
On average, how long does the typical janitor stay with your company?
Is your department adequately staffed compared to the cleaning need?
What editions to your department would help guarantee the facility is properly cleaned?
Do you plan to add staff to the department in the next 12 months?
What I the reason for needing additional staff?
