In fact, the word custodian is derived from the Latin word custodia, meaning “guarding, watching, keeping.” A custodian’s work is never done. When there is an equipment failure, a weather emergency, a broken window, or a failing light fixture, a school custodian will be on call to take care of the problem.
They do this all while performing risky and labor-intensive jobs. They’re required to complete tasks that expose them to potentially dangerous chemicals and physical injuries such as muscle strain. But they also manage the things we often take for granted, like full soap dispensers, stocked toilet paper and clean floors. October 2 is National Custodial Worker’s Recognition Day, and now more than ever, custodians are incredibly deserving of recognition.
