Building and Grounds Cleaning
These workers ensure that structures and lands remain attractive, orderly, and safe.
Overall employment in building and grounds cleaning occupations is projected to grow 5 percent from 2021 to 2031, about as fast as the average for all occupations; this increase is expected to result in about 290,800 new jobs over the decade. In addition to new jobs from growth, opportunities arise from the need to replace workers who leave their occupations permanently. About 779,400 openings each year, on average, are projected to come from growth and replacement needs.
