MEMORANDUM

Over the coming weeks, thorough floor cleaning work will get underway in the buildings on all the CERN sites on Swiss territory. The work will take place on Saturdays, with polishing operations being performed on a monthly basis and waxing operations on an annual basis.
P
lease note the following points:

  1. Notices announcing cleaning operations will be placed on the doors of buildings on the Monday preceding the Saturday on which the work is scheduled.

  2. Office floors must be cleared as much as possible to allow the work to go ahead. Cluttered offices cannot be cleaned.

  3. The cleaning service will be provided with the keys required to open all offices, including those for which only a single key has been provided (sensitive premises and those not included in the standard CERN locking plan).

  4. Those responsible for the above-mentioned offices who do not wish keys to be given to the cleaning service are kindly requested to be present on the day on which the work is scheduled to provide access to the premises, or to notify the cleaning service that they do not wish the work to go ahead by sending an e-mail to the following address on the Thursday before the scheduled operation: fabien.garin@cern.ch.

  5. Any cleaning work that is not performed will not be re-scheduled.

  6. Where there is a significant deterioration in the state of floors in premises owing to the fact that it has not been possible to perform polishing or waxing operations, the cost of resurfacing the floors will be charged to the Department responsible for the premises concerned.

This matter has been discussed and approved by the General Services Technical Forum (GSTF) attended by representatives of Departments.
