Mister Kleen is committed to continuous training of our employees to better serve our clients – which we recognize sets us apart. We regularly train our team members to ensure they are up to date with the latest protocols in cleaning for health and appearance through our Enhanced Kleen Program.
Additionally, we offer optional bi-weekly IT training sessions covering frequently requested topics for all employees. We also have an Online Learning Management System (LMS) with over 4,500 courses. Managers are assigned training to improve areas of development like active listening, encouraging team communication and collaboration, setting goals, and leading diversity.
This month two training topics were covered. In Safe Lifting, staff reviewed training in the safety procedures for lifting. For Driver Safety, our Human Resources team led a webinar and video training for employees who drive Mister Kleen vehicles as well as for those who regularly drive their own vehicles.
Below are some highlights from training sessions earlier in the year:
Slips, trips, and falls prevention: Employees were trained to recognize and prevent slip, trip, and fall hazards in the workplace. Managers also received a review of Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations and post OSHA forms in buildings.
Biohazards/Bloodborne Pathogens: Employees received training for the procedures and proper handling of bloodborne pathogens and other potentially infectious material. Employees were also trained in the procedures for handling trash.
Hazard awareness training: The Kleen Team learned about common workplace hazards for cleaners and safety measures to prevent illness and injury.
Sexual harassment: This training helped ensure that employees understand the legal definition of sexual harassment, Mister Kleen’s policy, and the complaint reporting process. This training also addressed how to promote a culture of respect and the importance of professional boundaries.
Chemical handling/ safety data sheets: All staff received training to ensure that products are being used correctly and ensured that they are Green Seal (GS- 42) compliant.
Safety training: Human Resources led training for supervisors on preventing workplace injuries and facilitating return to work.
CPR and First Aid: Training for HQ Employees and Managers took place at our Alexandria headquarters.
