– COOPERATION and TEAMWORK
Since I started working for lykke hjemme the company is getting bigger and now we are almost 40 girls. Each of us is different, with different background and knowledge, but we all should work with the same method and style. Better cooperation helps the job and make it more efficient, saving time, energy and money and makes people’s life easier.
Tasks
Every time we approach an appointment the team should decide how to optimize the workflow. I suggest to do as I was trained time ago: one take care of kitchen and bathroom the other one dust and vacuum. If one is done with her task will help the other partner to get the job done together as a team.
In the end together we clean the floor.
Many times I heard “is my customer” when I was taking over another route and in my opinion doesn’t exist “my customer” because all customers are LYKKE HJEMME’S customers.
– LYKKE HJEMME PORTAL
Everybody must use more the app to fill in all the information about each customer and those information needs to be clear for everybody else. Information such as:
Parking, how where and payment (EASY PARK)
Keys and nokkelbox, where I can find and code
Floor number apartment number
Rooms to clean, which one has to be clean and which not (customer have to leave the door open of the room that he/she want to be cleaned, so we don’t get any surprise like sleeping or naked people)
Special request from customer, different chemical, pay attention to specific areas or places.
All those information are very important because when someone else is taking that customer we knows everything in an eye-blink without calling anyone and wasting time.
– CARS AND EQUIPMENT
All the cars should be equipped with appropriate equipment, tools, chemicals.
Gloves
Vacuum cleaner with long cable (170 sqm house with short cable is a struggle!)
Bags for vacuum
Yellow duster
Bucket for water
2 mop sticks
Cloths
Mops
White sponge
Sponge for oven
Bags for garbage
Bags for dirty mops and cloths
Hands sanitizer
CHEMICALS
I suggest to adopt a STARDARD for chemical.
DAGLIGRENT floor, kitchen, mirror, inside windows, outside shower box SANITAERRRENT SURT PERIODISK: bathroom, toilet, shower,kalk JIF: WC
PLUMBO (with mask) : oven
– Products for desperate housewives:
Zalo: It is a dish soap, specific for a dish, pans and pots.
Most of the time is used with wrong dosage that leave stains on mirrors, showers and shiny surfaces. Doesn’t work against kalk!
Eddik: It is not a soap! It was tasted as disinfectant and is not effective against all the bacteria but only few species. Klorin is better. In my opinion the smell is too strong.
Klorin: Sometimes we can use it in specific cases such as WC, pee stains under WC, but the smell it might annoy the customer.
We are not desperate housewives , we are professional cleaner.
If I have to change car tree times a month I wish to have the same equipment in every car.
– VASKEROOM AND TOP UP EQUIPMENT
Keeping in mind that cooperation and collaboration makes life easier for everyone we have to improve the way we manage the vaskerom with dirty and clean stuff. For example deciding who is in charge and when.
Going back and forth to the office to get the equipment many times a week by every team is pointless and we can try to help each other saving time and energy.
Teams who lives near can try to drive to the office once each and get the stuff for the group.
I’m happy to work for this company but I also see room for improvement. Together we can do it better.
