According to GovInsiders’ article on “How tech can ease the cleaning industry's manpower crunch”(2021), cleaning robots can work symbiotically with cleaners. These cleaning robots focus on “time-consuming, repetitive manual tasks” while the cleaners focus on other complex tasks that robots cannot do like “elevator buttons, bathrooms, and desks”. Whiz, an AI-powered commercial floorcare cleaning robot from SoftBank Robotics, has functions such as sensors to work automatedly, vacuuming, air filtration with HEPA filter and floor disinfection with GERMii’s Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) technology(Softbank Robotics, n.d.). It automates vacuuming so workers can concentrate on things that benefit people. Additionally, not many studies were done on the consequences of using a disproportionate amount of cleaning chemicals that will be “concerning from health, cost, and environmental perspectives”. One solution to tackle such problems is the GERMii’s technology to modify UV-C into a concentrated bea...

It automates vacuuming so workers can concentrate on things that benefit people. Organizations can send cleaners for training in light of the current pandemic so they will be well-prepared to fully utilize the most recent cleaning technologies. Additionally, not many studies were done on the consequences of using a disproportionate amount of cleaning chemicals that will be “concerning ...
