Ensure public, operational, and support areas meet required event-ready standards.
Ensure the proper use, cleaning, storage, and care of equipment, carts, tools, and supplies.
Monitor chemical and consumable inventory and coordinate replenishment as required.
Ensure cleaning products are properly labelled, stored, and handled in accordance with WHMIS requirements.
Oversee waste collection, sorting, recycling, composting, and waste handling procedures.
Promote waste diversion and sustainable cleaning practices.
Complete shift reports, inspections, attendance records, incident documentation, and operational reports.
Participate in event briefings, operations meetings, and post-event debriefs.
Assist with scheduling adjustments and real-time workforce redeployment.
Enforce company, client, venue, and health and safety requirements.
Identify and correct unsafe conditions and report incidents, hazards, and near misses.
Support emergency response procedures and maintain safe working conditions during event transitions.
