Janitor: All-rounder with a federal certificate
Janitors are needed in many different public and private properties. They perform important tasks in schools, hospitals, care homes, residential buildings, office buildings, factories, sports grounds and train stations. Depending on the specific situation and working environment, the individual tasks and jobs may vary slightly. However, the basic areas of responsibility always remain the same.
Trained janitors with a federal certificate are responsible for the cleaning, maintenance and upkeep of buildings, for the operation and maintenance of building technology, for environmental work and proper waste disposal. They also commission tradesmen as required and coordinate various tradesmen's jobs with each other. They are often in direct contact with the many people who work in the building or on the site and who come and go. In many cases, they are the first point of contact, be it for the rental of facilities and premises, for questions from employees or visitors to the facility or when technical questions and problems arise.
Janitors often lead a team of employees and train apprentices. They place orders with external service companies and monitor their execution. They carry out regular inspection and maintenance tasks as well as minor maintenance work independently.
