Every day, the thousands of cleaners in the Netherlands ensure that people can work, live or recreate in a clean and hygienic environment. Definitely important work and indispensable in our society. As a result, cleaning work can be found in virtually all sectors. From catering to offices, but also in museums, educational institutions and public transport.

New cleaning employees are therefore constantly being sought by the various cleaning companies in the Netherlands.
Working in cleaning: a versatile job
If you start working as a cleaner, you will find that cleaning offers many advantages that you will not easily find in another job. There are varied locations where you can work and working hours can often be planned in consultation. This makes cleaning work easy to combine with activities outside work. This leaves you enough time to take your children to school, play sports or study alongside your job as a cleaner. Moreover, because as a cleaner you do not have a fixed workplace, you get enough exercise during the day. So it is not only useful, but also healthy! But there are several other good reasons to consider a job in cleaning. On our information page read all about it.
Activities and training
A cleaner's work depends, among other things, on the location being cleaned. But in general, cleaning work consists of making and keeping a building, means of transport or (public) space clean and hygienic. This means, for example, mopping and vacuuming floors, emptying bins and maintaining and cleaning sanitary facilities. No specific (pre)training is usually required before starting a job in cleaning. Often, a cleaning company does offer training to new employees before they start their job. In addition, there are often opportunities to take internal training courses to specialise in a particular cleaning method, for example, or to advance to a managerial position. So cleaning work also offers various opportunities to develop yourself further and grow.
