How to use this checklist

Edit the tasks to match the site's scope of work. Delete what you don't do; nobody should sign off work that was never scheduled.
Print one sheet per area and post it where the work happens. Daily sheets last a week, weekly sheets a month.
Have the cleaner initial each box as they finish. A supervisor spot-checks and signs the bottom.
File completed sheets by site. When a client asks "was it done?", the answer is in the folder.

Tips from the field

Split the daily list into opening and closing so day staff and night cleaners each know their half.
Wet floor signs during trading hours are a safety item: add them as their own line.
Photograph the floor after each periodic job; it settles disputes when the lease ends.
