Carrying out general cleaning is an absolute necessity in all catering establishments, children's and medical institutions. It can be performed by staff or by a professional company. In the second case, many advantages await, and the price of the work will be low and affordable for everyone. The key feature of such work is the availability of specialized equipment and detailed adherence to sanitary and epidemiological standards. Cleaning is carried out in all institutions on an ongoing basis - daily and more thorough (general) - once a week.
Why does a cleaner need instructions?
Cleaner is one of the most common professions.
It can be found in the staffing table of any company. ConsultantPlus experts explained in detail how the staffing arrangement is drawn up. Get trial demo access to the K+ system and go to the HR Guide for free.
A cleaner's job description (JDU) is a full-fledged document from a set of similar instructions, the presence of which is necessary to regulate the relationship between the employer and the employee.
IMPORTANT! The functional responsibilities of an office cleaner can be specified both in the employment contract (Article 57 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation) and in the labor management agreement (Article 8 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).
There are usually no qualification requirements for the cleaning profession - level of education or work experience do not play a special role. Other qualities that are important here are scrupulousness, cleanliness, patience and endurance.
IMPORTANT! DIU takes on special significance if the premises for which the employee is responsible for the cleanliness have specific properties.
For example, the DIU for house cleaners will look different:
- industrial;
- warehouse;
- public;
- office;
- food production;
- technical.
In addition, the maintenance of the maintenance facility will be different if cleaning is provided not inside the office premises, but on the company’s territory (or the cleaner is assigned both the territory and all office premises).
Thus, it is in the interests of both parties to the employment contract that every employee in the company is familiar with their job description, including the office cleaner.

Nuances of the job description for a cleaner of industrial and office premises
The types of premises listed in the previous section require different approaches to their cleaning. Let's consider the features of control systems for food production premises.
IMPORTANT! The safety management system for food production premises must take into account the special requirements imposed on such premises by sanitary standards and rules.
The instructions must reflect not only the requirements for special equipment used in the cleaning process of food production premises, but also list the types of cleaning (disinfection, wet cleaning, etc.) and the surfaces subject to mandatory treatment (equipment, floor, walls, ceiling, doorways, etc.) etc.).
The cleaner must correctly take into account the specifics of the detergents used - they must be safe and without a strong odor, and also be easy to clean greasy and oily stains specific to food production.
IMPORTANT! If cleaning is carried out in premises where, due to the conditions of the technological process, harmful substances are released, the DIU must list special cleaning methods that take into account aggressive conditions, specific contaminants and special requirements for sanitary conditions.
Explanations from ConsultantPlus will help you understand the intricacies of special assessments and protect yourself from fines. Get trial access to the K+ system and switch to the Standard Situation for free.
The material “Dangerous and harmful production factors (list)” will help you get acquainted with dangerous and harmful production factors.
If in the DIU of a cleaner of food production premises the requirements of sanitary standards come to the fore, then in the DIU of industrial premises more attention should be paid to methods and forms of cleaning, types of surfaces to be treated, etc.
For example, a job description for a cleaner of industrial premises may contain the following wording:
“The cleaner of industrial premises is obliged to:
- remove contamination of various origins from horizontal and vertical surfaces of premises and equipment;
- clean machines and special equipment by dry wiping or by cleaning with compressed air (the name of the equipment subject to these types of cleaning is given in separate instructions);
- clean the surface of exhaust devices;
- carry out washing of tanks using temperature, mechanical or chemical effects to remove specific contaminants (according to the standards established in special instructions)...".

Rules and requirements for general cleaning when working with food products
Food enterprises also have their own sanitary rules. These are the standards that sanitary and epidemiological workers are guided by when inspecting institutions. Sanitary standards were adopted back in the period of the USSR and in the period of modern Russia they were only clarified in the form of SNiP. The sanitary requirements of retail or manufacturing enterprises concern all aspects of working with food; general cleaning and requirements for them are only part of the whole range of actions.
In most institutions, general cleaning of premises is done at least once a week.
In some cases, a more frequent cleaning regime may be established. So, to the question of how often general cleaning of premises is carried out at retail enterprises, we can answer that these terms establish internal standards while observing general standards.
DIU of the territory: what needs to be taken into account?
For a territory cleaner, the structure of the DIU has a standard form and may include the following sections:
- general issues;
- functional responsibilities;
- rights;
- responsibility.
In the first section, it is necessary to indicate that the territory cleaner belongs to the category of workers. Then it is necessary to determine which of the company officials he directly reports to, who appoints him to the position and dismisses him. Separately, you can indicate what instructions and standards the territory cleaner must know (safety rules, requirements for the sanitary condition of the territory, the technical condition of the devices used, etc.).
When listing the responsibilities, it is necessary to designate in as much detail as possible the territory subject to cleaning (borders, objects, etc.), define general cleaning responsibilities regardless of the weather (maintaining the company’s territory in a clean condition, regularly washing and disinfecting containers for waste and garbage, etc. ). Separately, it is necessary to provide for additional labor actions depending on the season.
For example:
- in winter - removing ice and snow from sidewalks and roadways, sprinkling reagent;
- in summer - maintenance and watering of lawns, flower beds and other green spaces;
- in spring - cleaning trays for water drainage;
- in the autumn months - raking and disposal of fallen leaves.
In the “Rights” section of the management manual, it is necessary to list the actions that the cleaner has the right to carry out:
- receive from the company administration the information necessary to perform their job duties;
- report to your immediate supervisor about violations that interfere with the performance of duties;
- submit proposals to management to improve the labor process and other production issues;
- require the company administration to provide assistance in the performance of labor duties, etc.
IMPORTANT! The general labor rights of workers, regardless of their position, are provided for in Art. 21 Labor Code of the Russian Federation. Infringement of employee rights is unacceptable.
The final part of the DIU reflects the types of responsibility of the employee (material, disciplinary, etc.).
Features of wet cleaning
Wet cleaning means not only the daily wiping of dust from surfaces in the house and humidifying the air, but also weekly cleaning with the implementation of global cleanliness measures. Due to the fact that time in our lives is limited, we have to optimize our work as efficiently as possible in order to spend a minimum of effort and time on cleaning, but at the same time have maximum results:
- We begin to restore order with preparatory cleaning, removing dust from chandeliers, cornices, shelves and upper tiers of cabinets.
- We always move from top to bottom, gradually moving to the middle tier, wiping window sills, furniture, decorative interior details and appliances.
- Finally, we vacuum, preparing the floor and baseboards for wet cleaning.
- We wipe the baseboards with a damp cloth and then wash the floor.
- Next, we open the windows so that fresh air can enter the room, after which it will become much easier to breathe and the floors will dry faster.
- Finally, we rub glossy surfaces and mirrors, since dust always settles on them first.
You need to start cleaning from the farthest rooms, gradually moving towards the exit from the apartment. Finally, we leave the hallway and bathroom; by this time, the floors in all other rooms will be dry and you will not carry dirt in them.
Removing dust
To quickly and efficiently complete this job, consider the following recommendations:
- wipe off dust with a damp cloth, starting from the tops of the cabinets,
- to avoid dust particles sticking to the wet surface, then wipe it with a dry cloth,
- Also wipe doors and door frames; if they are glossy or glass, then leave them,
- to make dust removal as convenient as possible, leave shelves and open surfaces completely empty, removing photo frames, books and accessories,
- wipe the surface of the window sill, radiators, if the radiators are covered with screens, remove them and wipe the heating devices,
- Wash the rag after processing each surface in a prepared basin with clean water,
- Lastly, wipe the baseboards and heating system pipes,
- Having finished with the dust, move on to the mirrors and glass - apply window cleaner and rub them with a dry cloth until they shine.
Cleaning upholstered furniture and carpets
If there are animals in the house, then there will definitely be fur on the sofas, armchairs and carpets, which must be gotten rid of daily. To quickly remove it, soak a brush with stiff bristles in a container of water and begin to remove hairs from the furniture from top to bottom with sharp movements. If the soft surfaces are not fleecy, then the hairs can be removed with a palm moistened with water. The situation is similar with carpets - you should walk over them with a damp brush to collect the pile. If there is dirt on the furniture or carpet, you can resort to cleaning products, using them according to the instructions.
When chemicals used to clean carpets or upholstered furniture evaporate, they release hazardous substances that can cause loss of consciousness and suffocation. Therefore, open the windows before using them and keep them closed throughout the cleaning process.
Kitchen and bathroom cleaning
Clean the bathroom and kitchen like this:
- using the “top to bottom” principle, we wipe the lamps and the upper tier of cabinets and shelves with a damp cloth,
- if there are unwashed dishes left in the sink, we correct the situation, and if the laundry basket in the bathroom is full, then we start the wash cycle,
- wash the cabinet facades with a damp sponge or napkin; if the walls are covered with tiles, then we use compounds for cleaning ceramics and clean the masonry with the hard side of the sponge, paying special attention to the seams,
- in the kitchen we clean the stove, oven, microwave oven and other household appliances - special compounds will help get rid of old dirt and grease,
- to clean the sink and faucet we use the same chemicals that are used to clean the bathroom - these are products for rust and water deposits,
- in the bathroom we treat the plumbing fixtures with anti-stain agent, and then wipe them with a damp cloth, treat the toilet with an antiseptic and proceed to washing the floors,
- As a rule, the floor covering in the kitchen and bathroom is tiles, and in order to effectively remove dirt and disinfect, we use special products.
Cleaning the hallway
When cleaning the hallway, additional cleaning tasks arise due to the constant presence of dirt that gets into the apartment along with street shoes and outerwear. After removing dust from the top tier, remove all shoes from the shoe rack and wipe them from the inside (first with a damp cloth and then with a dry one). Since the most dirt and debris settles in the hallway, wash all the shelves in the closet or dressing room. Before washing the floor, sweep or vacuum it thoroughly, and also polish mirrors and glass doors until they shine.
Take care of the cleanliness of the rug near the door - knock it out, and if necessary, wash it.
Mopping floors
For this work, it is important to choose the right mop (rag) attachment:
- A fluffy rag, popularly called “noodles”, is well suited for tiles - it consists of numerous braids that perfectly collect small debris and hair,
- sponge cloths are suitable for laminate, parquet, engineered wood and other surfaces that are sensitive to excess moisture,
- For linoleum and self-leveling floors, the best option would be flat rags with fine pile.
We start washing the floors from the farthest room, gradually moving towards the exit, leaving the hallway for last. We wash the cloth in water every 10 square meters to completely remove dust. It is not recommended to add disinfectants and aromatic agents to water when cleaning bedrooms. Before using commercial floor cleaning compounds, it is important to read the instructions and make sure that they are suitable for treating a particular floor covering.
A safe and effective floor cleaner is tea tree oil. The necessary bactericidal and aromatic effect is achieved with 3–5 drops of oil, which are diluted in a bucket of water.
Results
The job description for an office cleaner helps regulate the relationship between employee and employer.
From its contents, the scope of responsibilities of the cleaner, his rights and responsibilities, as well as the nuances of performing labor functions (objects, forms and methods of cleaning, used devices, equipment, processing modes, etc.) should be clear.

Tips for cleaning and humidifying the air
There is special climate control equipment for air purification and humidification:
- air washers,
- humidifiers,
- climate complexes that humidify, purify and ionize the air.
If you do not have these devices, you can use the following recommendations:
- regularly carry out wet cleaning of the premises,
- ventilate rooms often,
- if the air is dry, wet a rag or towel and place it near the door - the water will evaporate and humidify the air,
- in winter, place a container of water on the radiator - this will eliminate the lack of moisture in the air,
- replace blankets and pillows made of natural materials (down, wool) with synthetic ones (sintepon, padding polyester, holofiber) - this will get rid of pathogenic mites that live in bed linen.
Inventory and technical assistance
Productive cleansing using solutions and water requires the presence of auxiliary equipment and devices:
- rags for furniture surfaces, interiors, floors;
- latex gloves;
- mop and bucket;
- compositions for cleaning the bathroom;
- vacuum cleaner or broom;
- ladder.
Special equipment helps to simplify the process of putting things in order and save time. Washing vacuum cleaners, steam cleaners, and modern mops with automatic spinning are easy to use. In large areas, wet cleaning is carried out using scrubber dryers.
