HOUSEKEEPER / ROOM ATTENDANT

Housekeepers are responsible for preparing and cleaning guestrooms on a daily basis. This includes making beds, dusting, cleaning bathrooms, scrubbing floors and walls, replenishing bath and room supplies, vacuuming, polishing and general cleaning. Other responsibilities may include stocking of supply rooms, stripping used bedding and linen, transporting clean and dirty linen, washing and folding laundry, cleaning of public areas and public restrooms, light grounds-keeping, linen rotation, light administrative duties related to daily work, and periodic deep-cleaning of guest rooms which may involve lifting of mattresses and moving furniture. Other duties similar in nature to the ones detailed here may be assigned at the discretion of the housekeeping supervisor or other hotel management staff.

During the performance of your regular duties you will be required to use a wide range of cleaning chemicals including, but not limited to; window cleaner, commercial grade bathroom cleaner, tub degreaser and lime remover, air and carpet fresheners, floor strippers and cleaners, and general purpose cleaners. Although safety equipment is provided, persons with known allergies to cleaning chemicals should not accept employment. 

You may also be assigned to perform only one specific duty (such as making beds, folding laundry) each shift, dependent upon the needs of the department. You should be able to lift up to 35 pounds and remain on your feet for your entire shift in a fast paced work environment. Housekeeping is a rigorous and physically demanding job and involves the completion of many repetitive tasks involving the use of back, shoulder and leg muscles. It requires the ability to work under specific time and performance constraints and to take specific direction from the HK Supervisor.

We are looking forward to hearing from you.
