    Running a Business? Why You Need to Know About Accountancy
    When you first envisaged working for yourself, it's pretty unlikely (unless you're an accountant) that this vision included late nights compiling end of period financials. Or sitting hunched over a part-completed profit and loss statement with furrowed brows. There's no doubt accountancy, for most, is not the most g
    Cleaning companies basically fall into three categories. Large national or multinational companies; small to medium sized companies who operate within well defined regions; and small cleaning companies operating within one single town and often run by husband and wife teams. The very large companies employ many hundreds if not thousands of staff. The SME’s may employ around 10 – 60 people and the very small ones are often reluctant to get involved with employing people at all and if they do their number can be counted on one hand. The majority of the employees regardless of the size of the company are of foreign origin with English being a second language, and generally will be on low pay.

This duty of care means implementing all the relevant aspects of Health and Safety legislation applicable in the country of operation.

    Leaving A Great Taste In The Mouth Of Your Customers
    I’m a big believer in WOWING customers. On the same note I believe you must ensure that if you WOW them you can do so consistently. As there is nothing worse than WOWING the customer today, for them to return in a few days or weeks time only to be OWED as the level of service you gave them the first time suddenly becomes the nor

    1. Are made fully aware of all hazards in their job and how to avoid them.

    2. Are given adequate training

    3. Have access to understandable documentation

    4. Have use of well maintained and safe equipment.
