6 tips for being a great janitor
TRANSCRIPT
Janitors have one of the
most important—and
unappreciated—jobs in any
company, school, or
organization. Without them,
buildings don’t get cleaned
or properly maintained,
making everything more
difficult and less pleasant for
everyone else. To succeed at
their job, janitors need
several important skills that
help make sure their work
gets done right.
The first crucial skill a
good janitor needs to have
is good time management.
The best janitors arrive on
time, get to work as soon
as possible, and quickly
learn just how much time
to spend on every task
they’re responsible for so
that they get done
completely and on time.
Keeping a facility clean and
maintained is no easy task. It
requires janitors to be
attentive to their work and to
the buildings they are
responsible for taking care of.
A good janitor always makes
sure to clean thoroughly and
completely, and to notice
when a room or appliance
needs special care.
Whether part of a team or
working alone, a good janitor is
always organized. That means
that they not only keep careful
track of what jobs have been
completed and what still needs
to be done, but also that they
keep track of their supplies and
tools at all times, so that they
can be found and used quickly
whenever they are needed.
Janitors should always be
concerned for their own safety
and the safety of the people they
work with. A good janitor is
always careful to follow proper
safety procedures, knows how to
properly handle potentially
dangerous cleaning materials and
tools, and goes out of his or her
way to avoid creating any
potentially hazardous situations.
When a janitor cares
about their job and the
organization they work
for, they are more likely to
be concerned about the
quality of their work and
doing the best job
possible. The best janitors
are the ones who are
committed to their job
and care about the
people they work with.
Keeping floors clean is about more than just maintaining appearances. Clean floors last
longer, carry less germs and harmful bacteria, and help keep spirits high. That’s why great
janitors know the right tools and cleaning materials to use to give every floor the best
cleaning possible.
When they need the best
cleaning machinery available,
good janitors don’t just shop
anywhere. They know that
