Title: Advice for retail cleaning
Post by: seanlade on February 23, 2009, 03:04:33 pm
Hi there. Does anyone have advice for retail cleaning in the hertfordshire area.

Specifications
Pricing
Times
??

Any help would be good

Have just quoted boots opticians for one store and this is the proposal i gave them. Hopefully going to use this proposal for lots more retail shops.

If you want to take it for yourself and edit it, then instead of asking me to send you a word doc, you can convert it by going to http://www.pdfonline.com for free

The material that you posted is, as far as I know, protected by copyright, I would advise that you ask the mods to remove.

Regards,

Rob

oh ok. uh cheers. I've taken it off now. do you have any input though? I've edited it heavily so it differs to the original sample proposal I looked at at www.cleanbid.net.

No problem mate, didnt say that you couldnt use it, after all you pay for it, but please be careful, things like that are supplied for your own use only, they normally give you permission through the terms of use.

could I ask a favour, could I grab a copy of your staff handbook you were sending people back in 06. Downloaded one from else where, but thought a variety might help me create one specific for me

The handbook that you have asked for is now seriously out of date, time and legislation has seen to that, the same handbook has done the rounds on many other sites, with little or no regard to copyright, as have other documents that I have supplied.

The simplest way is to access a program that allows editing of pdf documents, and make the required changes.

I am unable to supply the original in word document, as I had some idiot threaten legal action because the material was out of date, let me stress that the document should be used only as a GUIDE, it would be your responsibilty, to ensure that it meets current legislation, and not mine!

Not me being awkward, just covering myself and the company, it is now one of the reasons I help on an individual basis, rather than through the forum now.

Regards,

Rob

well that sounds fair enough. it should be assumed that most things published on here need tweaking to suit the needs of the individual business and hsould only be used as a guide/template for developing our own.

Hi Robert

Just wanted to say I downloaded your manual and it was absolutely brilliant as a guide to the core contents needed for mine.  I spent hours rewriting it but would have spent even more hours had I not had the guide, so thank you very much.

Kind Regards

Glad it was useful Diane,

Pencil in the 1st of April 2009, to look at your employment terms and conditions, as the procedures and rules relating to dismissal and greivence procedures radically change on this date, any claim for damages could rise as much as 25% if you get it wrong!
