Housekeeping? No, not the mopping, cleaning and polishing! This is about Housekeeping for your business. The paperwork, licences, accounts, returns, admin, maintenance. Is that YOU I hear groaning???😲 The main point is, make sure you have the infrastructure in place and by the way, this doesn’t mean you have to do all these things yourself! Rules and regulations can be boring and uninspiring but ignore them at your peril! There are many experts and many who genuinely enjoy working on the compliance and admin you need. 💫 ‘Outsource like a lunatic’ was the advice I once heard. 🙌 So if housekeeping isn’t your strength, or your time is better spent doing other things in your business – outsource. Having a background in Financial Services, we were very used to ‘compliance’ of all kinds. It’s a very useful discipline. I’ve seen many businesses fail when their housekeeping let them down. So if any of this resonates with you or it’s these concerns that might be holding you back, how about joining us on our live 2 day course where we unravel the whole Entrepreneur’s Journey, including the housekeeping!

Another important thing. Please make sure that your duties are not duplicated. I’ve noticed most people duplicated duties without noticing it. For an example. 1. Operating switch board 2. Answering all income calls and transferring to the relevant department. In all honestly, this is the same thing. Switch board is used to answer calls and transfer to the relevant department This is not something that can hinder you from getting hired but it’s housekeeping 👏 you don’t wanna have a long list of duties repeating the same thing in different words.

As an Executive Housekeeper, overseeing and directing housekeeping operations at a resort is no easy feat. It requires a diverse skill set and a relentless determination to succeed every single day. From hiring, training, and supervising staff to managing inventory and interacting with resort management, the responsibilities are endless.

Unfortunately, many companies hesitate to invest time and money in training employees, resulting in costly mistakes, unhappy workers, low productivity, and ultimately, turnover.

### Procedures for Handling Room Discrepancies 1. **Proactive Room Status Verification:** - Housekeeping frequently updates room status throughout the day, causing fluctuations in room occupancy data. - To maintain accuracy, the **Assistant Manager** or **Night Manager** should proactively review and verify discrepancies between housekeeping and front office records. - Any room marked as occupied should be investigated to ensure that appropriate charges are applied. 2. **Error Correction and Access Control:** - In case of clerical errors or incorrect inputs causing room status discrepancies, the room status must be adjusted accordingly. - **Password control** should be in place to restrict access to room status adjustments. Only **Assistant Managers**, **Night Managers**, and other senior staff should be able to make such changes. 3. **Reporting Unresolved Discrepancies:** - Any discrepancies that cannot be resolved through routine investigation should be immediately reported to the **Front Office Manager** and **Financial Controller**. 4. **Financial Controller Oversight:** - The **Financial Controller** is responsible for ensuring the aforementioned controls are in place and effective. - The Financial Controller’s team should also perform spot checks regularly to confirm compliance and identify any potential issues. These procedures ensure accurate room status management, prevent revenue leakage, and enhance accountability in both the housekeeping and front office teams.

As a founder/owner of a cleaning business, I've heard people say, "It's just cleaning," which I find amusing. Having worked as a cleaner and housekeeping manager for years, I learned that being a good cleaner requires skills and knowledge. During cleaning job trials, I've seen people with cleaning products ask, "What is this used for." This highlights the importance of paying attention to detail and understanding the use of cleaning products. To be a cleaner, one must be physically fit, practice consistently, stay organized, stay updated on cleaning trends and innovations, seek training opportunities, learn from experienced cleaners, develop customer service skills, and identify problem areas. Ensuring quality control is also crucial. In short, being a good cleaner is a skill that requires continuous learning and improvement. Let's give our cleaners the credit they deserve! #cleaning #skills #qualitycontrol #customerservice #continuouslearning

Why Housekeeping? ❓🧹 From the moment I began my journey in housekeeping, I recognized the significance of the field and its impact. Every detail matters—from ensuring a pristine and inviting space to the strategic operations happening behind the scenes. It’s a profession where meticulous care, collaboration, and dedication come together to create a seamless experience for guests/members and team members alike. 🤩 One of the most rewarding aspects of this career is the opportunity to nurture and support a diverse team. Housekeeping is a melting pot of cultures and personalities, and managing such a vibrant, multifaceted department requires resilience, adaptability, and a genuine commitment to people. It's this diversity that makes the department so enriching, as it provides constant opportunities to learn, grow, and take pride in our collective achievements. Over the past decade, my experience has taught me that a successful housekeeping department isn't just about maintaining standards—it’s about fostering an environment where every individual feels valued and empowered. When the company you work for recognizes and invests in this vision, it allows you to strive for excellence, contributing not just to the organization’s success but also to your own personal and professional growth. ❤️ Housekeeping is much more than a profession—it’s a path that offers a profound sense of purpose. It combines the joy of creating spaces that bring comfort and delight, the challenge of optimizing operations, and the privilege of leading and inspiring a dedicated team. For me, it’s about building a career that reflects both my passion for excellence and my belief in the power of teamwork.🥰
