TLE 7-HE- HK : 1. Explain basic concepts in housekeeping
Concept:
In view of housekeeping ‘Cleanliness is next to Godliness’ is a very
common saying. This aphorism suggests that being clean and tidy is the
next best thing to being morally good. This can also be used to signify the
fact that cleanliness and Godliness are very similar.
Cleanliness is both the abstract state of being clean and free from
germs, dirt, trash, or waste, and the habit of achieving and maintaining
that state. Cleanliness is often achieved through cleaning. 
Being clean is a sign of spiritual purity or goodness, as in Don't
forget to wash your ears—cleanliness is next to godliness.
The following reasons why “cleanliness is next to Godliness” are:

1. Positivity. Keeping things clean and in order gives you and others a

happy feeling, and so does being good and peaceful.

2. Spiritual advancement. Cleanliness is all about taking care of yourself

and your surroundings, and getting rid of anything dirty.

3. Health: physical, mental and spiritual. Staying hygienic and ridding our

surroundings of germs is good for our health. Keeping our minds ‘clean’ is
also good for our spiritual health.

4. A sense of beauty. There is a real beauty in a sparkling clean house, a

tidy and well cared for garden and also in the human body when we look
after ourselves and allow our inner beauty to shine through. A Godly
person also has beauty in their actions, words and thoughts.

5. Motivation. Working to keep things clean and neat brings joy and a

sense of satisfaction. Working on the physical cleanliness of ourselves and
our surroundings motivates us to do good in the spiritual aspects of our
lives too.

Housekeeping on the other hand is doing basic cleaning tasks in a

house, hotel or other locations, or the department of employees who
manage and perform cleaning tasks. An example of housekeeping is the
cleaning of your bathroom or the maid in the hotel who cleans the rooms.

The two important concept in housekeeping activities are:

1. CLEANLINESS refers to all areas are clean. This includes all furniture
and fixture, windows and glass panels are free of dust; doorknobs

linen or garbage is a potential hazard for broken glass or exposed
syringes. The cleaners must not put their hands in garbage heaps.

Quarter __ Week 7

At the end of the session I would be able:

TLE7-HE-HK – 3.2. Observe proper cleaning of tools, materials and equipment
according to standard and procedures.
Concepts:

Clean and maintain Housekeeping tools and equipment

A full complement of housecleaning tools and equipment can help ensure
that you are able to tackle any cleaning task that your home requires.
1. Clean and maintain your vacuum cleaner. A vacuum cleaner is an
essential piece of household equipment, and it needs more frequent
maintenance than perhaps any other piece of equipment in your
home.
2. Keep your broom and dustpan cleaned and maintained. A broom is
another essential household tool, and one that gets dirty and
damaged fairly quickly. Bent, dirtied bristles will not clean as
effectively. Store your broom off of the ground. Comb the broom's
bristles regularly. Wash both the broom and dustpan with soap and
water
3. Sanitize your sponges and other scrubbing tools.
a. Soak the sponges in a mild bleach solution for 5 minutes for the
most effective bacteria reduction. If you don’t want to use
bleach, soaking the sponges in undiluted vinegar will also kill
over 99 percent of bacteria.
b. Other effective options for sanitizing sponges including running
them through the dishwasher with your dishes and healing them
in the microwave. In the microwave, saturate the sponge with
water and heat it on the highest setting for 2 full minutes.
Here is a checklist to keep tools and equipment in top working
condition
1. Upright Vacuum - Empty bag regularly; Wipe outside of vacuum after
emptying. Check for strings, carpet yarns, etc. wrapped around beater bar.
Check belt for cuts and change when needed. Empty magnet bar after
each use.
2. High-Speed Buffers - Wipe down entire surface after each day's use.
Also wipe cord. Check pad for replacement. Blow out motor approximately
every 2 weeks. Once per month check screws and bolts to ensure they are
tight.
3. Wet/Dry Vacuum - Rinse out inside, wipe inside and out after each
use. Rinse and wipe hoses and attachments.
4. Carpet Machines - Rinse out inside of tank, filters, hoses and
attachments. Wipe down outside.

Quarter ___ Week 7

TLE7-HE-HK – 4.1. Practice safekeeping practices in accordance with establishment
standards
Concepts:
Safekeeping is also known as safe keep, is the storage of assets or other
items of value in a protected area. Many individuals choose to place
financial assets in safekeeping.
Personal Safety: Safety Resources
1. Recodable locks – Reduce chance for guests to be victimized in their rooms
by someone who had rented the same room on a prior night. Help reduce
the incident of employee theft from rooms.
2. Surveillance system
 Use of VCR – Recording activity at front desk, in parking areas and
near cashiers.
 Use of CCTV (Close Circuit Television) – In multiple entry property
where management desires to monitor outside each entrance.
3. Alarm systems
- Internal alarms: Serve to deter criminal or mischief activity.
- Notify an area within the hotel if alarm is activated.
- Protect storage areas, hotel facilities (pools, spa, and exercise areas),
and hotel and perimeter.
4. Contact Alarms – Notify (contact) an external entity such as fire or police
departments if alarm is activated.
5. Emergency Plans – the identification of the threat to the safety and security
of the hotel a hotel’s planned response to the threat.
6. Response to events in most hotels’ emergency plan - Fire/power outages
/severely inclement weather/robbery/death or injury of guest and
employee/bomb threat/intense negative publicity by media.
The main security concerns in hotel housekeeping are:
1. Guest Theft - Guest takes hotel items as souvenirs. The hotel may not
mind things like soaps and stationary are taken as the hotel may build
such costs into the room rate. But items as towels and bathrobes are a
serious concern because of their cost to replace them. The hotel adopts
the following precaution: Key Control - Limited access to guest rooms.
Suspicious Movements - observe suspicious movements and report to
security. Departure Procedure - give a quick glance at the room and
bathroom before they remove guest baggage. Standard issues to Guest
rooms - the ability to detect missing items is made possible, and Entry/Exit
Point - A guest room has only one entry/exit door.
2.  Employee Theft: As in the case of the guest, employees find that most
of the items are useful at home. A hotel reduces pilferage by adopting the
following precaution. Issuance of Gate Pass, Spot Check, Limited Access
and Par Stocks: Room attendants have par stocks of items on their maid
cart that have to be accounted for.
