By adhering to the highest industry standards and implementing rigorous protocols, we aim to create a safe and healthy environment for all.
We recognize that the cleaning industry comes with unique challenges, such as exposure to hazardous substances, handling equipment, and working in diverse environments. That’s why we continuously invest in training, monitoring, and improvement to maintain our impeccable safety record.
Why Health & Safety Matter
Maintaining health and safety isn’t just a legal requirement, it’s a moral obligation. Clean and safe environments are essential to reducing risks, safeguarding public health, and enhancing productivity. Whether it’s ensuring a dust-free construction site or sanitizing a workplace to prevent the spread of illness, our procedures are designed to protect everyone involved.
Our Health & Safety Policies
At F&G Cleaning Solutions LTD, we have developed comprehensive policies to address every aspect of health and safety:
Risk Assessments: Before starting any project, we conduct thorough risk assessments to identify potential hazards. This allows us to plan and implement measures to mitigate risks effectively.
Training and Certification: Our team is fully trained and certified to handle specialized equipment, cleaning chemicals, and challenging environments. Regular refresher courses ensure our staff stays up-to-date with the latest health and safety practices.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): All team members are provided with appropriate PPE, including gloves, masks, and safety goggles, to minimize risks during operations.
Use of Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products: We prioritize environmentally friendly and non-toxic cleaning solutions to ensure the safety of our clients, staff, and the environment.
Compliance with Regulations: We strictly follow the UK Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and adhere to all relevant guidelines, such as those from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
Safe Handling of Equipment: From vacuum cleaners to specialized cleaning machines, we ensure all equipment is operated safely and maintained regularly to prevent accidents.
Dust Management & Silicosis Prevention
For construction and builders cleans, one of our key priorities is dust management. Exposure to crystalline silica dust, a common byproduct of construction can lead to serious health issues, including silicosis, a preventable yet untreatable lung disease.
To address this:
- We use advanced dust extraction tools and equipment to minimize airborne dust particles.
- Our operatives are trained to safely remove and contain dust during cleaning procedures.
- We ensure adequate ventilation and employ cleaning techniques that prevent dust from being dispersed into the air.
Maintaining Hygiene in the Workplace
For commercial cleaning and welfare cleaning services, we prioritize hygiene to safeguard workers’ and clients’ health:
- High-touch surfaces are disinfected regularly to prevent the spread of germs.
- Our cleaning routines are tailored to meet specific workplace requirements, ensuring compliance with industry hygiene standards.
COVID-19 & Infection Control
In the wake of the global pandemic, we have introduced enhanced cleaning protocols to reduce the risk of infection in workplaces, homes, and public spaces:
- Use of hospital-grade disinfectants proven to kill bacteria and viruses, including COVID-19.
- Focus on high-risk areas, such as door handles, light switches, and communal spaces.
- Regular team training on infection control procedures and best practices.

Our employees are at the heart of our business, and their safety is non-negotiable. We provide:
- Regular health and safety training.
