Custodians perform many cleaning and maintenance duties in an organization. Some of these duties include mopping spills, vacuuming and shampooing carpets, washing bathrooms and ensuring that all surfaces are sterilized properly. As part of their maintenance duties, custodians fix leaky faucets and pipes and change light bulbs.
Working as a custodian is difficult work as one has to be on one’s feet all the time. With the arrival of each employee or visitor to a building, the chances of dirt become imminent.
