Housekeeping – Common Areas and Individual Offices

Housekeeping – Common Areas and Individual Offices

Facilities Management will continue to clean public areas, including floors, restrooms, stairwells, hallways, lobbies, waiting areas, and conference rooms. Individuals will take ownership of cleaning personal spaces. Cleaning and disinfecting common and shared areas will be the responsibility of departments and units. Supervisors should develop and communicate a clear plan and assignment of responsibilities for this using existing office staff. It is strongly recommended that gloves be worn when cleaning and handling trash.

Each building level will be stocked with critical housekeeping supplies (e.g., hand sanitizer dispensers located in multiple areas, cleaning supplies, paper towels, gloves, etc.). Disposable masks for vendors, guests, and employees who may not have them will be available. Individuals are encouraged to bring their own cloth masks.
