Executive Housekeeping Today - September 2008 - (Page 22) Frugal (continued from page 10) well-armed with two distinctive approaches to staffing custodian operations at their institutions. The first approach is based on the Custodial Staffing Guidelines (1992, 1998) that assist managers to staff their cleaning operations based upon APPA’s Five Levels of Service, with clearly defined outcomes of staffing at each level. An organization cannot staff their operation at APPA Level 5 and expect APPA Level 1 results. The findings of this research study indicate that the levels of cleanliness do impact the ability of students to learn. There is a correlation, maybe stated in simple terms, that the cleaner the learning space, the greater the probability that students perceive they will learn. What a powerful duo of tools. Facilities managers can now clearly indicate that decreased staffing leads to decreased levels of cleanliness, and that there is a direct connection between the cleanliness of a facility and students’ ability to learn. If educational institutions are to provide the best environment in which students can learn, they would be well advised to staff at a level that will provide an acceptable level of cleanliness that will contribute to student learning and health and not detract and distract from that critical goal.
