Carpet Cleaning Harringay is committed to providing safe, professional carpet and soft furnishing cleaning services while protecting the health, safety, and welfare of our customers, employees, contractors, and the public. This Health and Safety Policy sets out the principles, responsibilities, and procedures that guide our work on every job, across homes and business premises in our service area.
Our primary objective is to prevent accidents, injuries, ill health, and damage to property or the environment. We aim to achieve this by identifying hazards, assessing risks, implementing sensible controls, and continually improving our practices. Health and safety considerations are integrated into planning, training, equipment selection, and daily operations.
We recognise our duty to comply with applicable health and safety legislation and relevant industry standards, and we expect all employees and contractors working on behalf of Carpet Cleaning Harringay to follow this policy and related procedures.
Management is responsible for implementing this policy and ensuring that effective arrangements are in place for the planning, organisation, control, monitoring, and review of health and safety performance. This includes:
Ensuring suitable and sufficient risk assessments are carried out for all key activities, especially carpet cleaning processes, stain removal, upholstery cleaning, and the use of powered equipment.
Providing appropriate training, information, and supervision so that employees can carry out their work safely and competently.
Supplying and maintaining safe equipment, tools, and cleaning products, and ensuring that manufacturer instructions and safety data are followed.
Reviewing accident reports, near misses, and customer feedback to learn from incidents and improve our procedures.
All employees and contractors working for Carpet Cleaning Harringay have a duty to take reasonable care of their own health and safety and that of others who may be affected by their actions or omissions. They must:
Follow all safety instructions, training, and method statements provided by the company.
Use equipment, chemicals, and personal protective equipment only as trained and intended.
Report hazards, defects, accidents, near misses, and any concerns about safety to management without delay.
Cooperate fully in health and safety matters, including attending training sessions and toolbox talks when required.
We conduct risk assessments for core tasks such as hot water extraction, low-moisture cleaning, spot treatment, and moving furniture during cleaning. These assessments identify potential hazards, including slips, trips, electrical risks, manual handling, and chemical exposure, and set out control measures to minimise these risks.
Before starting work at any property, our team will evaluate site-specific conditions such as access routes, floor conditions, ventilation, electrical supply points, and the presence of children, pets, or vulnerable persons. Where necessary, we will adjust our working methods to maintain safety, or we may refuse to carry out work if it cannot be completed safely.
Carpet Cleaning Harringay uses professional cleaning agents that are selected for their effectiveness and safety profile. All substances are handled in line with manufacturer instructions and safety data information. Our controls include:
Storing chemicals securely and transporting them safely in company vehicles.
Using only clearly labelled containers and never decanting into unmarked bottles.
Wearing appropriate personal protective equipment when handling or applying chemicals.
Avoiding over-application of products and ensuring adequate ventilation when using treatments that may release vapours or odours.
Ensuring that children, pets, and other building users are kept away from treated areas until surfaces are safe and dry, and it is appropriate to re-enter.
Our cleaning machines, vacuums, hoses, and accessories are selected and maintained to operate safely and efficiently. We ensure:
Regular inspection, testing, and servicing of portable electrical equipment and tools.
Use of correctly rated extension leads and avoidance of overloading power outlets.
Positioning cables and hoses to minimise trip hazards, using warning signs where necessary and maintaining clear walkways.
Immediate removal from service of any defective equipment until it has been repaired or replaced.
Manual handling tasks are an integral part of carpet and upholstery cleaning, including moving furniture, lifting machinery, and transporting equipment. To prevent injury, we:
Train staff in correct lifting and carrying techniques, and encourage the use of team lifts where appropriate.
Assess the size, weight, and stability of items before moving them and avoid lifting loads that are too heavy or awkward.
Use appropriate aids where available and request customer cooperation where necessary.
Take particular care to protect both staff and property when moving furnishings, preventing strain injuries and damage to items.
We are committed to safeguarding our customers, their families, employees, visitors, and members of the public while we work. This includes:
Clearly communicating areas that are wet or temporarily out of bounds while cleaning is in progress.
Using safety signage where needed to warn of slip risks or trip hazards from hoses or cables.
Protecting surfaces, fixtures, and belongings with appropriate coverings where necessary to avoid damage.
Maintaining professional conduct at all times and respecting the privacy and security of customer premises.
All staff receive induction training that covers company health and safety expectations, safe use of cleaning equipment, chemical handling, manual handling, and site-specific precautions. Ongoing training is provided to keep knowledge up to date and to reflect changes in products, machinery, or legislation.
Supervisors and senior staff monitor working practices to ensure that safe systems of work are followed and provide guidance when unusual or higher-risk situations arise.
In the event of an accident, incident, or near miss, employees must report the details to management as soon as possible. We will record relevant information, investigate causes, and put in place corrective actions to prevent recurrence where reasonably practicable.
Where first aid is required, our staff will follow trained procedures and seek additional medical assistance if needed. In the event of fire, gas leaks, or other serious incidents at a site, we will follow the venue or property emergency arrangements and evacuate promptly.
Carpet Cleaning Harringay is committed to continually improving health and safety performance. This policy and related procedures are reviewed regularly and whenever significant changes occur in our operations, equipment, or legal requirements. Feedback from employees and customers is welcomed as part of our improvement process.
By implementing this Health and Safety Policy, we aim to deliver high-quality cleaning services while ensuring that work is carried out responsibly, with due care for people, property, and the environment across our service area.
