Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
While we do not have a contractual requirement to use green cleaning products, our cleaning service has listened to our stated preferences and responded by using many Green Seal products. In addition, they have changed some of their practices to reduce the amount of chemicals used and how often (floor stripping and waxing in particular).
