Procedure

Department: Housekeeping	Name of Assessor:	Position of Assessor:
Operation/Task: Manual Handling	People Involved:	TQ ON employees

Description of Operation/Task:

Transporting any items from one location to another:

Think before lifting/handling. Planthe lift. Can handling aids be used? Where is the load going to be placed? Will help be needed
with the load? Remove obstructions such as discarded wrapping materials. For a long lift, consider resting the load midway on a table or
bench to change grip.
Keep the load close to the waist. Keep the load close to the body for as long as possible while lifting.Keep the heaviest side of the
load next to the body. If a close approach to the load is not possible, try to slide it towards the body before attempting to lift it
Adopt a stable position. The feet should be apart with one leg slightly forward to maintain balance (alongside the load, if it is on the
ground). The worker should be prepared to move their feet during the lift to maintain their stability. Avoid tight clothing or unsuitable
footwear, which may make this difficult.
Get a good hold. Where possible the load should be hugged as close as possible to the body.
Start in a good posture. At the start of the lift, slight bending of the back, hips and knees is preferable to fully flexing the back (stooping)
or fully flexing the hips and knees (squatting).
Don’t flex the back any further while lifting. This can happen if the legs begin to straighten before starting to raise the load
Avoid twisting the back or leaning sideways, especially while the back is bent. Shoulders should be kept level and facing in the
same direction as the hips. Turning by moving the feet is better than twisting and lifting at the same time.
Keep the head up when handling. Look ahead, not down at the load, once it has been held securely.
Move smoothly. The load should not be jerked or snatched as this can make it harder to keep control and can increase the risk of injury.
Don’t lift or handle more than can be easily managed. There is a difference between what people can lift and what they can
safely lift. If in doubt, seek advice or get help
Put down, then adjust. If precise positioning of the load is necessary, put it down first, then slide it into the desired position

Correct Storage:

Lighter items – The higher shelves in your work area should contain items that are not heavy or uncomfortable to move
Heavy items – Heavier Items should be stored at a comfortable hip height level to minimize the risk of bending down or reaching when
moving these items to and from the shelves
Medium weight items – These items should be stored at ground level and will not be really heavy but will not be considered light in weight

19. Operation/Task: CLEANING OF FLOORS DURING WET WEATHER

Lifting trays

  - Look around and avoid endangering anyone else.

Preparation, clearing, and relaying of tables:

Prepapation of Tables:

- - Understanding the setting: Familiarize yourself with the different types of table setting - from casual to formal.
  - Each setting type has different requirements for tableware positioning.
  - Cleaning: Always ensure that the table is clean and spotless before seating guests.
  - Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe down the table.
  - Tablecloth: If used, tablecloths should be wrinkle-free and properly aligned. Smaller table napkins should also be folded neatly.
  - Arrangement of Cutlery, Crockery and Glassware: Cutlery should be placed in the order of its use, from the outside moving
  - in. Plates should be centered, and glasses positioned to the top right of the plates.
  - Centrepiece: If using a centrepiece, make sure it complements the overall table setting and doesn’t obstruct the view across
  - the table.

Clearing of Tables:

- - Timely clearing: Start clearing the table only once all guests have finished eating.
  - Clearing while someone is still eating can make guests feel rushed.
  - Clearing sequence: Always clear from the right of the guest without stretching across them. Remove dishes one by one, never stack dishes on the table.
  - Leftover food and cutlery: Remove leftover food discreetly. Cutlery used should be cleared along with the plate.
  - Spillage: If anything spills while clearing, clean it up immediately.

Relaying of Tables:

- - Quick turnaround: Tables should be relayed as quickly as possible to ensure the venue can accommodate more guests or be ready for the next service.

- - Replacing tableware: All aspects of the initial setup - tablecloth, glassware, cutlery, and for some venues, new dining chairs - should be replaced when preparing for the new guests.

- - Positioning: Ensure all cutlery, crockery, and glasses are correctly positioned. Incorrect positioning could lead to an awkward dining experience.

- - Final check: Do a final check to ensure no piece of tableware is missing or dirty before seating the next set of guests.

22. Operation/Task: HANDLING GLASSWARE

A B C D E F G K

Broken or chipped glasses can compromise the safety of workers and guests, and replacing damaged glasses can prove expensive over.

time. Employees also must take the time to clean up the glass, which pulls them out of service.

Knowing how to handle glassware reduces the possibility of broken glasses and saves time and money. Below are a few specific areas.

where you can help lower the chance of breaking glasses.

- - Avoid mechanical shock:When a glass contacts other glasses or utensils, it compromises the strength of the glass. To avoid this, store glasses in glass racks.

- - Avoid thermal shock:If glasses are exposed to a quick and drastic change in temperature, the glass can chip or crack. To avoid this, adjust glasses to different temperatures by letting them slowly adjust to room temperature first.

- - Avoid stacking glasses:Rather than carrying glassware in “bouquets” or stacking them, carry one glass in each hand at a time and use glass racks to transport multiple glasses. This reduces the risk of chipping the glass and weakening it.

- - Keep silverware and glassware separate:Placing silverware inside glassware to transport it causes the glass to weaken from mechanical shock. Instead, keep metal silverware in designated silverware bins.

Polishing Glasses

Properly drying glasses is a vital part of glassware upkeep. It is best to dry glasses with a linen towel or a microfiber cloth immediately.

after cleaning them. During this process, note the thickness of the glass to avoid applying too much pressure and damaging the glass.

Avoid touching the inside of the glass bowl while drying it to ensure your fingers do not smudge it or leave prints.

Use the following steps when drying glassware:

- - Make sure you hold the glass by the bowl. Holding the glass by the stem or base could result in breakage, so it is best to avoid grabbing the glass at either of these points.
  - Use the cloth to gently dry the glass. Do not use excessive pressure.
  - Run the cloth along the outside of the glass as the final step to clean away fingerprints.

How to Transport and Store Glassware

Employees regularly transport glasses in a restaurant/event room, traveling from the dish area to tables and back again. There are several dollies, racks, and trays that help to move glassware quickly and safely. Using glassware racks and non-skid trays allows servers to transport multiple glasses at once. It also helps to reduce the chances of broken glasses. Properly storing glassware is also important and knowing how to store glasses can keep them clean and ready for use.
