When people walk into a clean office, a well-maintained hospital, or a safe public space, they often don’t stop to think about the work that goes into maintaining those environments. Yet, behind the scenes, the facility services industry plays a crucial role in keeping Australia’s workplaces and communities running smoothly.

For over three decades, I’ve seen firsthand how facility services contribute to the success of businesses and the wellbeing of people. At GJK Facility Services, we do more than just clean buildings—we create environments that are safe, efficient, and sustainable. Whether it’s commercial cleaning, maintenance, or environmental services, our industry is essential to the daily operations of schools, hospitals, offices, and public spaces across the country.

The true value of facility services lies in the people who do the work. Our industry provides thousands of jobs across Australia, supporting individuals from all walks of life, including those who may have faced barriers to employment. Many of our team members take great pride in their roles, knowing that their efforts make a tangible difference in the health and productivity of workplaces.

Sustainability is also a growing focus in our industry. With increasing awareness of environmental impact, businesses are looking for ways to reduce waste, conserve energy, and implement sustainable cleaning practices. As an industry leader, we are committed to finding innovative solutions that benefit both businesses and the planet.

Facility services may not always be in the spotlight, but their impact is undeniable. As we move towards a more sustainable and inclusive future, I’m proud to be part of an industry that keeps Australia’s workplaces thriving—quietly, but powerfully.

Here’s to the teams that make it all happen.
