Where does a janitorial cleaner work?

Janitorial cleaners work in buildings across the country. You typically work indoors, but you may occasionally have outdoor duties like emptying outdoor trash receptacles or adding salt to a sidewalk on icy or snowy days. You can work in retail environments, office buildings, schools, government buildings, hospitals, and healthcare facilities. You may work directly for the building or company as an in-house janitorial cleaner, or you may work for a company that offers outsourced cleaning services. In cases of outsourced work, you may work in multiple locations throughout the week or day.
