Employment Law

Employment Law in Cleaning and Security

Performance management is a crucial aspect of this type of work, contracts are often won and lost on the basis of qualitative feedback from customers about the skill and behaviour exhibited by your cleaning and security staff. As most work of this type takes place out of normal office hours there is a greater need for appropriate systems to be implemented to ensure that:

  • Required standards and contractual obligations are met
  • Security patrols and alarm procedures are adhered to
  • Health and safety issues are managed
  • Company or client property is not used or abused
  • Correct PPE or uniform is worn
  • Faulty equipment is reported
  • Employees have appropriate ID and background checks
  • Staff are aware of the implications of their actions towards customers
  • Private property is protected
