Good afternoon,
In the Work Environment Satisfaction Survey from fall I saw many comments about labs and offices, particularly graduate offices, not being cleaned properly or regularly. I contacted building services and they shared the timing of their
detailed cleaning for each floor, please see attached.
Each office, including graduate offices, are supposed to be swept (and mopped if needed) weekly. The attached maps highlight when a certain area is scheduled to be cleaned/swept on a regular basis. Please check your office the day after
your scheduled cleaning and let me know if you still see problems. This will serve as a tool to identify if there are issues on a specific floor or in the entire building in general. Hopefully, you will notice an improvement in the quality of your office.
Labs are included in the document too, but the regular cleaning will not be done if you indicated there is sensitive equipment in your lab. Jeff Valley has a professional large capacity vacuum cleaner that can be checked out if you’d
rather do your own cleaning in laboratories.
You can email me concerns about cleaning or building maintenance at any time.
Regards,
Cristina
