About working at PARC

• Cleaning and sanitizing suites, bathrooms, kitchens, floors and common areas according to a pre-set schedule.
• Performing laundry services for residents as needed.
• Identifying, reporting and logging potential maintenance issues to management.
• Maintaining the housekeeping room, equipment and carts in safe and sanitary condition.
• Replenishing housekeeping carts and managing cleaning chemicals safely.
