Solutions Designed For Education
Each day, over 55 million students and 7 million staff attend more than 130,000 public schools and private schools in the United States alone. On average, they each miss about five days per year due to illness, totaling 285 million school days lost. With studies showing that chronically absent students are 7.4 times more likely to drop out of school, and absent teachers costing schools more than $25 billion annually, it's essential to invest in proven, reliable products.
That's why HG Commercial Cleaning continues to develop solutions for K-12 and Higher Education that address critical issues in health and hygiene in our schools.

Infection Prevention in Schools The risk of pathogens infecting the general public is a severe and ever-present threat. As pathogens are always evolving, it’s not still evident where the risks are and how to mitigate their threat. In educational facilities, preventing disease transmission is an integral part of proper facility management. Typically, fewer infection prevention resources are available and there is less access to infection prevention training and education. Schools are havens for pathogens like Flu, Norovirus and Rhinovirus which can all spread quickly, without warning through a school population leading to illness and high absenteeism. Efficient cleaning and disinfecting practices help eliminate reservoirs of disease which decreases the risk of transmission. Breaking the chain of infection by disinfecting surfaces is essential in preventing outbreaks and providing a safe, secure environment for students, guests and staff. |
