There are many reasons to start a Green Cleaning program for your business.                                                                    
Here are just a few:
-The EPA rates the indoor environment is potentially 3-5 times more harmful to humans than the outdoor environment. Indoor air quality, according to the EPA, is one of the top 5 health risks in the U.S.

-Two-thirds of commercial buildings are rated as having “sick building syndrome”
= $20 billion in worker compensation claims.

-There are 100 million lost work days each year do to poor indoor air quality
= $100 billion in lost productivity.

The primary benefit of Green Cleaning, with its emphasis on cleaning for health not just appearance, is a cleaner, healthier building. A healthier indoor environment translates into many concrete, bottom-line benefits for building owners, managers, service personnel and building occupants. These benefits include, but are not limited to:
Economic : Increased productivity, ROI, Reduced Health and Insurance Costs, Energy Savings, Lower HVAC Maintenance Cost, Greater Building Value.
Environmental : Increased Indoor Air Quality, Compliance with New State and Federal Environmental Regulations, Source Reduction, Environmental Effects Will Benefit the Entire Community.
