No matter where your office is situated, be it near an industrial area or in a secluded building on the outskirts of your town, dust and dirt will always find their way into your work environment. Dust is everywhere, in- and outdoors. It’s inevitable, therefore regular office cleaning sessions must be in order.
But.. where to start from? There’s so much to clean in an office space. Luckily, we’ve made this office cleaning checklist, so you can have a system that ensures your workspace is clean and neat in the end!
