The short answer is $60-$80 per hour, without knowing any context.
You can stop reading from here on if you only want to know the hourly rate.
You got your answer.
The truth is, I don’t know and it depends on many factors.
Let me share a story.
An 8-year experienced cleaner efficiently completes a job in 4 hours, surpassing expectations
Conversely, an 8-week experienced cleaner takes 7.5 hours, feeling overwhelmed and fatigued, but manages to finish the job.
Both deliver the same outcome.
The question is:
❓ Is the experienced cleaner worth less for completing the task effectively?
❓Is the new cleaner worth more for spending more time cleaning?
In life, we value expertise like doctors, accountants, plumbers, and consultants to achieve an outcome for us, we don’t measure based on their time spent.
Because we see values in their experience, expertise, efficiency they gain over the years.
So, why do we measure cleaners solely by time?
The question of “What’s the hourly rate for cleaning?”
Are often asked during your research phase, with the intention to understand the cost involve for your workplace. However, without further guidance (or questioning) it makes sense to measure “success” based on cost and time.
My question for you is:
Is it important to know how much time the cleaners spent on site?
Or
Is it important to have a clean and hygienic workplace?
Which outcome do you desire?
