Job Description

Sugpiat Group is a distinguished company specializing in providing essential support services to federal government facilities. Renowned for their commitment to quality, environmental sustainability, and employee empowerment, Sugpiat Group operates with a mission to deliver exceptional custodial and facility management services that uphold the highest standards of cleanliness and safety. Located in Narragansett, Rhode Island, Sugpiat Group serves as a trusted partner to government agencies, ensuring that their work environments are maintained to foster productivity and professionalism. Their focus on using environmentally preferable cleaning products and sustainable practices reflects their dedication to green initiatives and compliance with federal sustainability requirements.

The Janitor / Custodial Services Technician position at Sugpiat Group is a full-time role designed for individuals seeking to contribute to maintaining a clean, safe, and sanitary government work environment. This position entails routine custodial duties such as sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, dusting, sanitizing various areas including offices, restrooms, break rooms, and laboratories, as well as supporting special deep cleaning projects. The selected candidate will utilize green cleaning products and methods, which not only promote environmental health but also improve indoor air quality. This reflects the company’s adherence to federal green cleaning standards and OSHA safety protocols.

In addition to the routine custodial tasks, the role demands someone who is dependable, detail-oriented, and able to work independently while following both verbal and written instructions. The ability to safely handle cleaning chemicals and equipment such as floor buffers and carpet cleaners is essential. The candidate must also maintain a professional demeanor suitable for a federal government setting, report maintenance concerns, and ensure the replenishment of necessary supplies like soap and paper towels.

Another critical aspect of this position is the requirement to obtain and maintain a Public Trust clearance, emphasizing the secure nature of the work environment. U.S. citizenship may be necessary to comply with federal contract stipulations. Compensation for this position follows the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (SCA) wage determinations, with an hourly wage of $17.95 plus a health and welfare fringe benefit of $5.09 per hour. This combination provides a competitive salary package aligned with federal labor standards.

Sugpiat Group values strong attendance, reliability, and physical ability to manage duties requiring lifting up to 40 pounds, standing, walking, and climbing stairs for extended periods. Candidates with prior experience in custodial services, particularly within government, commercial, or laboratory settings, and familiarity with OSHA safety requirements and green cleaning practices will find this position especially suitable. The work environment involves interaction with cleaning chemicals and requires mobility throughout the facility, with occasional after-hours or weekend shifts.

Sugpiat Group is committed to equal employment opportunities and promotes diversity and inclusion in its workforce. This position offers job security, the chance to work in a respected company supporting federal operations, and the opportunity to develop skills in green cleaning and safety compliance, making it an attractive career choice for individuals seeking growth and stability in custodial services.
