Core Values

Our culture
EBM has a unique culture that shapes both our formal and informal organization and interactions. Hands on cleaners, are most responsible for deliverables and are treated with respect and courtesy. They are given an opportunity to advance in a way that matches their desire to grow. We train and match skill sets, to the needs of particular buildings, to enhance crew member expertise. This instills a sense of importance into our cleaning crew. We understand that recognition is a great motivator, therefore all suggestions for improvement are also accompanied by sincere compliments on performance. This culture has been an integral part of our start up. It is one of the most important characteristics we look for, when identifying a potential supervisor for training.
Our culture benefits our client/management companies because it has been proven to generate both higher performance levels and less employee turnover. Time and time again, we have witnessed a direct connection between our cleaners’ high level of pride and company success. One example; we had a crew cleaning a 4,000 square foot office building, whose consistent outstanding service led to a contract for a 400,000 square foot campus. Additionally, the start week was described by the facility manager as being, “the most seamless vendor change I have experienced in nearly two decades of management”.
