  • canning production technology.
  • As a rule, technologists choose their specialization during the training period.

But no matter what direction the technologist works, his main task is to prevent disruption of the production cycle. The slightest deviation from the technology and recipe for producing the product will lead to the failure of the entire batch. Only by constantly monitoring all components of production can product quality be ensured. So, for example, if suppliers brought the wrong type of meat for the production of sausages, find out the reason for this and demand delivery of meat required quality the technologist is obliged.

Introduction.

Today in the lesson we will get acquainted with professions in the field of trade, Catering and light industry. These professions are part of the public service sector. To serve means to serve people. This is a service to the good people, a service every day, where a specialist (salesman or waiter, cashier or cook, fashion designer or seamstress) deals with meeting the urgent needs of people, with the diversity of human moods, tastes, characters, and personalities. We must learn about the professions of the food and light industry, as well as what qualities we need to develop in ourselves when choosing a profession from this area? What is the content of the work of these workers?

1 slide. The topic of our lesson is “Professional activities in the light and food industries.”

Today in the lesson I invite you to learn for yourself, working with the text of the textbook, about the professions of the light and food industries and professional qualities its workers. To do this, we will divide ourselves into two groups. 1st row - work according to professional activity light industry, and 2-row food industry. Guide to independent work there will be technological maps for you, which I will distribute to you now. These maps contain educational elements - the stages of your activity (1 column), for each stage there are goals and the approximate time required to complete the tasks. Methods for checking the correctness of completed tasks, as well as at the end of mastering each element, you give yourself points; the last column describes the evaluation criteria. If you have any difficulties, you can contact me for help. I will put extra points for your oral answers and completed assignments in the margins of your notebooks.

3 slide.

A group of industries that provide the population with fabrics, clothing, shoes and other consumer goods are united into a separate industry - light industry.

At the stage of primary processing of raw materials, light industry has close contact with agriculture, and the raw material base for light industry is the chemical industry - the production of artificial and synthetic materials (artificial silk and leather, chemical fiber, synthetic rubber).

4 slide .

Light industry is a complex industry that includes more than twenty sub-industries that can be combined into three main groups: textile, clothing, leather, (fur, shoe).

6 slide.

As you might have guessed, today in the lesson we are talking about professions related to the “man - technology” and “person - person” types. An indispensable condition for successful labor activity All specialists of the “person-to-person” type are professional communication, the need to establish contact with other people. If an employee does not have patience and restraint, and is inattentive to people, then in this case we can talk about the employee’s professional unsuitability for professions of this type. Moreover, in our time, people’s demands on the culture of service, on the level of qualifications of workers, their ability to correctly perceive and evaluate the mental state of the buyer, client, his mood, and motives of behavior have increased significantly.

Being in sight all the time, working quickly and accurately, while remaining friendly and condescending - this may not be within the capabilities of everyone. But it is precisely this everyday and difficult work for the benefit of other people that lies the meaning of the activities of trade and public catering workers.

From time immemorial, a counter separated the goods from the buyer. This order seemed eternal and unshakable. Now the buyer moves freely around the store, tries it on, prices the product and only pays for all his purchases at the exit. The seller in this store does not stand still: he advises the buyer, assists him, lays out the goods, packs them, and performs the work of a cashier. Contact with the buyer does not last long, but during this time he must “give” the buyer the maximum useful information about the product in a friendly, unobtrusive manner.

Changes and technical equipment trading enterprises. Computers now help and facilitate the collection of information about goods received and sold.

Mechanical scales are being replaced by electronic ones. A cash register connected to a computer “reads” the cost of an item using a barcode and notes information about the item sold on the receipt.

Enterprises engaged in trading activities, are divided into several groups: 1. Consumer goods stores, 2. Department stores, 3. Specialty stores, 4. Shopping malls, 5. Warehouses - stores, 6. Stores selling from catalogues, 7. Online stores.

Practical work.

a) Test yourself as a commercial agent. Try to sell some item, advertise it so that the buyer cannot refuse. Choose the best commercial agent.

b) ROLE PLAY “Seller - buyer”.

The seller’s task is to calmly and kindly respond to the hot-tempered “buyer.”
