Our Culture

At Bee Line, our workforce is not like most. Thanks to diligent hiring principles, we only hire the best out there, and have many long-tenured employees thanks to our supportive environment. We train everyone from the ground-up and always try to promote from within.

Our Core Values

Our entire company follows the same guiding principles to ensure a job well done, every time. Leading with a purpose and a mission sets the stage for every single decision we make, team member that we hire, and client that we protect.

 We don’t just clean facilities. We act as the frontline of defense. That’s why we approach every site like they’re our own family, and put our all into getting the job done right, every time.

Reliability and accountability are the backbones of our business, which is why anything less than 100% simply won’t cut it.

  It’s our job to take ownership of everything we do, which means if you wouldn’t put your name on it, improve it.

Strength lies in our differences, not in our similarities. We embrace it, promote it, hire for it, learn from it, and succeed from it.

Infection Control never stops evolving, and neither does Bee Line. That’s why we approach our business with the big-picture mentality of a corporation, and the adaptability of a start-up. This allows us to spot trends,   spark change, and make a seamless and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
