The fundamental reason this classification
exists is to perform the work and supervise the work crews engaged in
performing semi-skilled custodial duties in office buildings and other
facilities. The major work duties
include planning for an assignment, directing activities on a work site,
documenting project activities, and supervising a work crew. The distinguishing characteristics of this
classification include responsibility for supervising work crews engaged in
manual non-skilled to semi-skilled labor performing a variety of maintenance, construction
and custodial duties. Incumbents work
under general direction. They are
generally in charge of the crew, plan and carry out assignments with
considerable independence, and have some latitude in developing procedures and
methods. Assignments are received at the
beginning of the shift and the foreman typically prioritizes the
assignments. Supervisors are contacted for
guidance in cases of unexpected occurrences or unanticipated situations.
