About Clean Workspaces UK

Our story, mission, and the team behind the initiative.

Our Mandate

Established in 2023, Clean Workspaces UK serves as an independent resource dedicated to advancing workplace hygiene standards. We bridge the gap between health guidelines and practical implementation for UK businesses.

We recognize that maintaining proper workplace hygiene is not just about aesthetics or meeting minimum requirements—it's about creating environments where employees can thrive physically, mentally, and professionally. Our goal is to provide accessible, evidence-based resources that help organizations transform health recommendations into practical, sustainable cleaning protocols.

We identify and share practical, effective techniques for enhancing workplace cleanliness and hygiene.

Supporting Business Health
