ServiceMaster Clean, ISSA (the worldwide cleaning industry association), and the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC), a Division of ISSA, have partnered to certify nearly 400 ServiceMaster Clean franchises.
The franchises, spread across both the United States and Canada, are now certified to the ISSA Cleaning Industry Management Standard (CIMS) Advanced by GBAC certification.
As part of the partnership, ServiceMaster Clean franchise owners providing commercial cleaning services will seek CIMS Advanced by GBAC certification, which describes the procedures and principles to be considered in designing and implementing quality management programs for cleaning organisations. Additionally, the certification provides third-party validation of the contractors’ cleaning, disinfection, and infection prevention protocols and procedures.
Joshua Ussiri, ServiceMaster Clean Interim President, said: “This partnership demonstrates our commitment to providing healthy indoor environments for customers through proper cleaning and disinfecting. The certification from ISSA and GBAC validates our processes and will serve as recognition of our brand’s commitment to delivering to our customers the highest standards of cleanliness throughout their facilities.”
John Barrett, ISSA Executive Director, added: “It is a pleasure to work with organisations like ServiceMaster Clean to help advance the health and safety of people in indoor environments. Upon completion of the CIMS Advanced by GBAC certification, each franchise will also become an ISSA member, which provides the opportunity to enjoy the many benefits of membership, including education and networking opportunities.”
