ORGANIZATION OF THE EMBARKATION DAY

Since the cabin will be the Guest's Home for the duration of the cruise, its care and cleaning is your most important and time consuming duty. As a good cabin steward\ess, you must take pride in the care, maintenance and cleanliness of your assigned cabins.

 

We have provided the following step by step guide intended to help you organize and plan your work and make it easier for you to do a thorough and efficient job of caring for your passengers and assigned cabins.

 

The day before Embarkation

 

· have all the "mise en place" ready

· Welcome folders, sanitized glasses, folded laundry bags, amenities, arrange the hangers

· arrange the lifejackets

· clean inside and behind the drawers do the heavy cleaning and dusting

· change shower curtain if necessary

· report all maintenance

On embarkation

 

· clean the cabins as fast as possible

· double check, whether all maintenance has been done (follow up)

· present the cabin in the prescribed manner

 

Embarkation

 

· be in your station, before embarkation starts

· have all collateral items distributed

· welcome your guests with a big smile

· introduce yourself to all your guests, addressing them by name

· introduce the cabin to all your guests, beware of the languages

· be prepared to give information pertaining to hours and locations

· be careful and discreet when dealing with questions of a personal nature

 

NOTE: in the morning of embarkation day, you will have one or two persons helping you to prepare your station. The list of the helpers is established at teat one day before by the Asst. Hk Mgr.

Your helper is following your instructions and you are responsible of the work the helper is making in the cabins. -

It is your duty to check the work achieve by your helper

The helper is helping you to make the bed (but it is faster for you to find another cabin steward to help you to make the double beds)

Mainly, the helper is cleaning the bathroom

Empty the trash from the cabin

Vacuum the cabin and the corridor of your station

It is not the responsibility of the helper to make the dusting in cabin or to make the set up

 

ROUTINE CLEANING

It is needless to say that the cabins must be at all times spotless. It is not always easy to keep the cabins tidy especially when the guests are very demanding and are asking for things that you have to provide or simply seek your company to talk to.

 

In any case it will be your main responsibility to keep the cabins clean.

 

The cabins will be checked on a daily basis by the Asst. Housekeeping Manager and once a week the Housekeeping Manager and the Director of Seruices.This is nothing to be afraid of. It is simply a control to ensure that all guests receive what they have paid for

 

The Assistant Housekeeper will also conduct an inspection based on a point system. This is a valuable tool for your progress.

 

In order to maintain an excellent standard of cleanliness it is advisable to adhere to a cleaning schedule that allows you to concentrate daily on a particular item, such as:

 

· portholes -ceilings

· walls

· carpet corners

· doors and frames

· lockers and trolleys

 

The last day of the cruise, especially in the evening you should always take particular attention of

 

· drawers

· inside of wardrobe and railers

· hangers

· lifejackets

· inside of bathroom cabinets

 

Each Cabin steward gets the " Routine Cleaning " form each morning from the Assistant Hk Mgr office.

Each Cabin steward is instructed by the Asst Hk Mgr of the items to be clean

At the end of their duty, (mid-day) each cabin steward give back his form filled to the Asst Hk Mgr.

The Asst Hk Mgr will make a spot check in the evening.
