OUR STAFF

At Brophy Services, we consider our staff the most valuable resource. The application of our management philosophy coupled with a careful recruiting procedure followed by intensive training programs, have given us a stable work force and one of the lowest staff turnover rates in our industry.

We carefully recruit our staff, screening them for trustworthiness, reliability and willingness to learn among other factors. Although most recruited people have prior experience in the building industry, they will still be exposed to our innovative and intensive technical training programs.

Training programs in a classroom and on-site facility settings typically cover a broad spectrum of topics. Cleaning processes only cover a small portion of the training program, others safety concerns addressed are:

• Basic Workplace Safety Practices
• Sexual Harassment Awareness
• Back Safety Training
• OSHA Regulations
• Chemical Safety
• Blood borne Pathogens Safety
• PPE
• Building Security Procedures

Brophy Services supervisors and area managers participate in periodic training sessions, trade shows, and seminars hosted by some of the trade organizations we are active in. All staff members are encouraged to participate as these professional organizations help employees keep abreast of new materials, procedures, equipment, and innovative ideas in the Building Services Industry.
