The Kitchen Staff are the backbone of the hospitality service industry, responsible for a broad range of duties. They ensure the smooth operation of the kitchen by preparing ingredients, cleaning and sanitizing kitchen equipment, assisting in food preparation, and maintaining stock levels of food and supplies.
