- What is the response time for unplanned leaves
Unplanned leaves is the one issue which has been plaguing everyone. Specially in this sector since cleaners are mostly uneducated and from other states so unplanned leaves sometimes become normal. How a good housekeeping company handles it becomes the deciding factor for how effective it is.

Chemicals are an integral part of housekeeping services. How we use these chemicals is very important because the right usage will help in effective cleaning. Also the chemicals need to be organic or human safe. How good a housekeeping company is will also depend upon the effectiveness of the chemical usage.
