What are groundskeeper janitors?

Groundskeeper janitors are professionals responsible for maintaining the cleanliness, safety, and appearance of outdoor and sometimes indoor areas around buildings or facilities. Their duties typically include tasks such as mowing lawns, trimming shrubs, picking up litter, sweeping walkways, and cleaning restrooms or common areas.
