What スーパーレジ係 do

An English description is being prepared. Japanese description:

スーパーなどのレジカウンターで買い上げ品の代金を計算し、商品と代金の受け渡しを行う。
 スーパーでは、客が自由に商品を選び、備え付けのかごに入れ、最後にレジカウンターで代金を支払うセルフサービスのシステムが一般的になっている。レジ係は、商品についているバーコードを機械で読み取り、自動的に代金を入力するPOSシステムが主流になっているので、仕事の内容は簡素化されているが、その分、接客の重要性が高まっている。スーパーの中で客と接する主要な役割であるため、レジ係の印象によって店舗全体のイメージが左右されることも多い。正確にレジを打ち、金銭の受け渡しに間違いがないようにすることはもちろん、好感の持てる接客態度や機敏な対応が重要となる。
 昨今は来店客自身が機械で精算を行ったり、商品のバーコードを機械に読み取らせ、代金を清算する、セルフレジも増加している。
