This unit of competency supports individuals working in the cleaning industry as an employee or a self-employed business owner.
The individual operates within the scope of their defined roles and responsibilities and typically works autonomously.
Commercial steam-cleaning techniques can be applied to a range of hard surfaces, fabrics and upholstery, commercial ovens, cooking equipment, glass and stainless steel. The cleaning may take place in a residential or commercial setting. The technique of using high temperature dry vapour steam provides a sanitising effect that has application in hospitals, aged care facilities and food preparation areas.
This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to use high temperature commercial steam-cleaning equipment and processes effectively. The unit requires the ability to analyse the capacity of steam-cleaning processes, communicate the benefits to client, and use the technology to achieve the required standard of cleaning.
