Individuals who perform a variety of heavy cleaning duties such as cleaning floors, shampooing rugs, washing walls and glass and removing rubbish. They may fix leaky faucets, empty trash cans, do painting and carpentry, replenish bathroom supplies, mow lawns and see that heating and air-conditioning equipment works properly. On a typical day, janitors may mop floors, clean bathrooms, vacuum carpets, dust furniture, make minor repairs and exterminate insects and rodents. They also clean snow or debris from sidewalks in front of buildings and notify management of the need for major repairs. While janitors typically perform most of the duties mentioned, cleaners tend to work for companies that specialize in one type of cleaning activity such as washing windows or shampooing carpets.
