You will frequently collaborate with a team of housekeepers and supervisors to ensure cleanliness standards are met, making strong communication skills essential.

What does a Housekeeper Per Diem do?

A Housekeeper Per Diem is responsible for cleaning and maintaining guest rooms, common areas, and facilities on an as-needed or flexible schedule, rather than working set, full-time hours.

Typical duties include dusting, vacuuming, making beds, restocking supplies, and ensuring that all assigned areas meet cleanliness standards. Per diem housekeepers often work in hospitals, hotels, or other hospitality settings. Their flexible schedule allows employers to adapt to changing staffing needs.
