You have to know a lot about health and safety to be a cleaner - such as knowing about all the chemicals and how to safely use them.

Also, I remember reading an article a few years ago about people in London in high powered jobs, who just wanted to get away from all the stress etc., becoming cleaners. They were very happy doing that job, felt it was worthwhile and felt valued.
