OH HB229

Department of Health shall establish a pilot program testing the OS1 comprehensive cleaning system in at least three public school districts (one urban, one suburban, one rural) for one school year.

Selected school districts must have reported underperformance in sanitary conditions per health inspections and high workers' compensation claims by janitorial staff.

OS1 system implementation requires existing school employees and must include comprehensive cleaning processes, staff training, safety emphasis, green-certified products, and quality control measures using only three daily-use chemicals.

Each facility's implementation shall be overseen by a committee with representatives from the Department of Health, Bureau of Workers' Compensation, local board of health, school district superintendent and facility manager, and ManageMen, Inc.

Committee shall establish baseline metrics, meet quarterly to review progress, conduct end-of-year evaluation, and submit written report to Governor, General Assembly, and Director of Health for posting on the Department's website.
