Finish a room clean within the standard time
When to use this goal
For students in hotel housekeeping or custodial placements who clean rooms to standard but take far longer than the site allows. Accuracy on the room checklist must be high first; present levels in pacing decide supports.
- Baseline
- Time 3 to 5 rooms from entry to exit and check each against the checklist. Only rooms that pass the checklist count; a fast room that fails is not progress.
- Tips
- Ask the supervisor for the standard time for a room. Look at where the time goes (searching for supplies, rechecking) before pushing speed. Pair with fn-voc-031 for the routine itself.
- Limits
- Room condition varies a lot; note very dirty rooms. Speed pressure can cause errors and stress.
