Housekeeping
Housekeeping: 01. Cleaning Guest Rooms
Welcome to our series on housekeeping. You are part of creating a happy environment for guests. There are a lot of moving parts when it comes to this job, and there are certain protocols and procedures you need to follow. Throughout this series, you'll learn all of the basics on housekeeping. We'll talk about everything from cleaning guest rooms and public spaces, to doing your job safely, all while making sure customers and guests stay satisfied. In this first program, we're going to focus on cleaning guest rooms. We'll go over stocking the trolley, entering guests' rooms, and procedures for cleaning rooms.
Housekeeping: 02. Cleaning Public Spaces
Just because you're in housekeeping, doesn't mean you're strictly going to be cleaning guest rooms and guest rooms only. You'll also be responsible for cleaning public spaces. That includes places like the entrance, lobbies, front office, elevators, stair cases, guest corridors, banquet halls, health club, and the swimming pool. Public area cleaning is a most important and challenging task for the hotel and for the housekeeping staff. Most of the public areas see high foot traffic, so maintaining these areas are important. This course will train you on how to properly clean each of these public spaces.
Housekeeping: 03. Working Safely with Ergonomics
Housekeeping can be hard on your body. You're constantly moving, walking, standing, reaching, and bending. You're carrying heavy towels and sheets. You're pushing and pulling your trolley. You need to make sure that you're doing all of these functions safely. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, has set guidelines for you to follow when it comes to performing your job. That's what this program is all about. We'll go over ergonomics and other basic definitions you'll need to know in the event that you're injured at work.
Housekeeping: 04. Interacting with Customers
As a housekeeper, you're going to interact with guests. Whether you knock on the door and wake them up, or if you see them in a public space; you'll have some type of interaction with them. Interacting with a guest isn't your core task but you shouldn't ignore the guest; you should know how to interact with them. No matter what part of the hotel an employee is working in, there is an overall common standard of excellent customer service. But, in your case, we're going to get a little more specific. This course will walk you through some common scenarios you may run into and how to properly handle them.
