Back to Mac: Custodial Services featured in campus cleaning plan story

Safety is the top priority as McMaster’s Facility Services team prepares campus for the return of more students, staff and faculty members in the Fall of 2021.

McMaster has a comprehensive cleaning plan in place for the Fall. As part of this plan, Custodial Services will clean and disinfect high-touch surfaces, like door handles and light switches, in high traffic areas with increased frequency. Classrooms and lecture halls will be cleaned nightly and then treated with electrostatic disinfectant spray. Public washrooms will be cleaned twice daily at a minimum. Every evening, common spaces like libraries and eateries will be cleaned. Hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes will be provided in classrooms and common spaces for personal use.   

The Custodial Services team is featured, along with more information about the cleaning plan on the Back to Mac website. Team member Krystyna Szydlowska, custodian, is pictured while disinfecting handrails in the Michael DeGroote Centre for Learning and Discovery (MDCL)
