Facility Services – Clean Team!

A team of 13 custodians have volunteered to be on call evenings and weekends and are contacted immediately when the University is notified of a probable or confirmed case of COVID-19 on campus. McMaster’s Rapid Response Clean Team plays a critical role on campus, ensuring a rigorous cleaning protocol is followed daily and any time there is a confirmed or probable COVID-19 case on campus. The team first assesses the areas of prolonged contact, then they determine potential access and travel routes, to facilitate a prompt, thorough clean of those areas. The affected space may also be temporarily closed until cleaning is completed and leadership is notified.

“From increasing cleaning frequencies to new sanitizing technologies like electrostatic disinfection sprays, our custodial staff are working diligently to keep campus safe and clean for those who need it,” says Carlos Figueira, director of Custodial, Grounds, Logistics and Mail Services.
