69.4/ 100
1 How much of what a beauty salon attendant is expected to do is already part of a locker room attendant’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the beauty salon attendant role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
A beauty salon attendant role treats 5 of its required skills as things a locker room attendant already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- clean building floors
- clean toilet facilities
- handle customer complaints
- maintain customer service
- restock toilet facilities' supplies
What stands in the way is 12 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 9 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A beauty salon attendant role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a locker room attendant background worth leading with.
- already held allocate locker space management skills
- already held restock toilet facilities' supplies handling and moving
- already held clean building floors handling and moving
- already held clean toilet facilities handling and moving
- already held collect items for laundry service handling and moving
- already held manage emergency evacuation plans communication, collaboration and creativity
All 9 carried skills, including the 5 the beauty salon attendant role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 24 missing skills fall into 7 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in.
