Hi Dave & Nick
Just got back, they don't want me to include cleaning on bank holidays, we to supply vacuum,mops, cleaning things. Then show extra cost to clean the tea towels 1/2 times a week and an extra cost to supply sanitary towel box in ladies & have it emptied. we currentlt pay £6.50 hr to cleaners as its as & when required work, I think to be competetive we need to pay £6 but can't reduce wages?

Hi Barbara,
The sanitary bins at cost price and to have them emptied on a 12 months contract, 12 visits per year at cost would be around £75.00 per year. You wont get involved in that except organise it and sub it as you need a Waste Transfer Note and a licenced waste carrier. If you need a contractor let me know. You can add a £10 - 15 pounds on.
We would throw in the cleaning of the tea towels for free
Er
What do you mean here
"we currentlt pay £6.50 hr to cleaners as its as & when required work" Is it that you dont have them full time, just as and when you need help?
If so if you ask them and say you have regular work they may work for the £6.00 Just draw up a contract. Its a different position. Just Move them over and change there job title.
Or leave them on £6.50 and take a little less out the contract as its only £5.00 per week .. if I have done the math right.
Grab it while you can.
Just a thought here:
Do they have existing cleaners? If so TUPE will play a big part - they need to transfer over
If not why not hire differtent staff - and pay them £6.00 - you cover while you find the staff
