Cleaning & Property Care
The Situation
You are asked to join a short meeting at the start of the day. You were told it involves “a client concern” from a recent job.
From the introduction, you learn that a property owner reported an issue after a cleaning visit. They said certain areas were missed, and one item may have been moved or damaged, though nothing has been confirmed.
A supervisor is present. Someone from scheduling or billing is taking notes. Your manager is listening closely. You worked at several properties that day, but you don’t yet know which location or task is being questioned.
You are expected to respond clearly and professionally. Pausing too long may raise concern.
Your Task
Respond immediately and calmly.
You do not have all the details, but you are still required to respond.
Avoid guessing or placing blame.
