Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to check guests in and out of commercial accommodation establishments. It requires the ability to check daily arrivals, allocate rooms and complete relevant documentation.

The unit applies to all types of commercial accommodation, and to individuals who staff the reception area. They use established procedures and systems under some supervision, but the customer service nature of the role means they apply some discretion and judgment in their interaction with guests.
