A cleaner must be able to identify hazards on the job and come out with procedures to reduce the risk of this happening. Cleaners ares responsible for their safety and that of their clients
Some of the hazards and risks are:
• Chemical cleaning products which may give off fumes or cause
caustic burns.
• Shocks from electrical equipment.
• Slipping, tripping or falling on wet floors or loose mats.
• Back strain and injury from handling equipment incorrectly
