Are Your Brooms Pushing You Around?

What's the difference between light, medium and heavy-duty push brooms?

Well it all depends on the type of surface to be swept. Push broom types are classified by the type of surface to be swept.

Light-Duty Push Brooms: Highly polished or waxed floors, smooth wood, vinyl tile and terrazzo. Wet surfaces should be avoided when using flagged or fine natural fibers. Not recommended for use with sweeping compounds or on oily surfaces.

Workplace Wellness – Staying Healthy Tips

By: WAXIE Editorial Staff | August 23, 2011

Hand Hygiene – Clean Hands Save Lives

Keeping hands clean is one of the most important steps we can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others. It is best to wash your hands with soap and clean running water for 20 seconds. However, if soap and clean water are not available, use an alcohol-based product to clean your hands. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers significantly reduce the number of germs on skin and are fast acting.
