The person in charge of collecting dishes at a food centre allegedly used the floor mop to wipe the rack where plates and cutlery are stored.

“Gosh! The dish collector at People’s Park Food Centre used the mop on the dish rack,” wrote Facebook page Complaint Singapore member Lucky Gem on June 5. The netizen quickly pulled out her phone to record the scene, but the cleaner stopped doing so.

“When realized that her action was (being) noticed, she ‘buay song’ (unhappy or angry) and started to cling clang the glasses loudly in between stealing glances at me,” added Ms Gem.

The attached video showed the cleaner in question mopping the floor near the dish collection racks.

Members from the online community urged the witness to report the incident to NEA (National Environment Agency) as this was a common practice among cleaners.

“Not surprised. Nowadays, cleaners do their job anyhow. They used the brooms to sweep the floor, chairs, and even tables. They do not clean the serving tray, even if the tray is full of gravy. Can even smell the spoilt food smell. So disgusting! They used mops to mop the public toilet seat,” wrote Facebook user Anna Chai.

“NEA and SFA (Singapore Food Agency), please do something! Let all these cleaners take some basic cleanliness courses, fine them if they don’t follow! We want a healthy and clean place to live,” she added.
