At DFS, workplace safety and compliance are foundational to delivering high-quality facility services. We are proud to announce that three DFS sites earned a perfect 100% on their 2025 Annual Safety Audit, demonstrating excellence in safety standards, training, and operational consistency.

These audits evaluate critical components of commercial cleaning and facility maintenance, including PPE compliance, chemical handling procedures, equipment safety, employee training, and overall worksite conditions. A perfect score reflects disciplined execution and a culture where safety is always the top priority.

2025 Safety Audit Champions

This year’s top-performing teams include:

  • Midway International Airport (Chicago, IL)

  • O’Hare International Airport Terminals 1–3 (Chicago, IL)
  • MXD (Chicago, IL)

Operating in fast-paced, high-traffic environments require strict adherence to safety protocols and operational precision. These teams demonstrated what it means to prioritize workplace safety while delivering reliable, high-quality facility maintenance services.

Earning a 100% on a safety audit is not simply about passing an inspection. It reflects:

  • Consistent compliance with OSHA and industry safety standards

  • Proper chemical storage and handling procedures

  • Ongoing employee safety training and documentation

  • Equipment inspection and preventative maintenance

  • Strong site leadership and team accountability

Their achievement reinforces DFS’s commitment to delivering reliable, safety-driven cleaning services and facility management solutions.


Why Safety Audits Matter in Commercial Facility Services

For organizations operating in airports, transportation hubs, and high-visibility environments, maintaining strict safety standards protects employees, clients, and the public. Regular safety audits ensure:

  • Reduced risk and liability

  • Safer working conditions for frontline teams

  • Compliance with regulatory and client requirements

  • Consistent service delivery across all sites

At DFS, safety is not a one-time initiative. Safety is an ongoing commitment embedded into our training programs, leadership expectations, and daily operations.


Setting the Standard for 2026

As we move through 2026, these achievements set a strong benchmark for all DFS teams nationwide. Whether earning a perfect score or making significant improvements, every step toward stronger safety performance strengthens our organization as a whole.

Congratulations to our 2025 Safety Audit Champions for setting the standard in safety, compliance, and operational excellence.
