Housekeeping Aid (HKA) - Environmental Services (EVS) Technician

The Housekeeping Aid (HKA) - Environmental Services (EVS) Technician plays a critical role in maintaining a clean, safe, and sanitary environment for Veterans, visitors, and staff at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). As an HKA-EVS Technician, you will perform a full range of light and heavy cleaning duties with minimal supervision. Major duties include, but are not limited to:

  • Clean and sanitize patient rooms, wards, offices, corridors, restrooms, shower rooms, and other assigned areas
  • Sweep, mop, scrub (machine), polish floors, and vacuum carpets and upholstered furniture
  • Remove trash and waste, including regulated medical waste, in accordance with safety procedures
  • Respond promptly to spills and maintain safe, hazard-free environments
  • Clean walls, windows, ceilings, light fixtures, and Venetian blinds
  • Refill dispensers (toilet tissue, paper towels, soap) and maintain supply levels
  • Move furniture and equipment as needed to perform cleaning duties
  • Use ladders and cleaning equipment safely to complete assigned tasks
  • Follow established infection control, safety, and environmental protocols

VA facilities employ a high percentage of Veterans, and HKA-EVS Technicians work alongside fellow Veterans in a mission-driven environment supporting patient care.

Work Schedule: Work schedules may vary and will be based on the needs of the service. Shifts may include days, evenings, nights, weekends, and holidays.

Position Description Title/PD#: Environmental Services Technician - Housekeeping Aid/PD99909S

Physical Requirements: The position demands continuous walking, standing, stooping, kneeling, pulling, and pushing. The work requires the occasional use of heavy powered cleaning equipment (e.g., wall washers, industrial type buffers) weighing over 50 pounds. The duties necessitate considerable dexterity, hand, foot, and eye coordination, and concentration as well as visual acuity to see dirt, dust and debris.

Working Conditions: Work is normally performed indoors with adequate heat, light, and ventilation. Some work may be performed outdoors where there may be exposed to varying degrees of heat and cold as well as inclement weather. PPE may be required in some circumstance as exposure to possible contagious diseases, blood and bloody secretion are inherent to this position. Care is required to avoid serious injuries (i.e., broken bones) when working on ladders, or when using 30-100-pound power equipment or handling hazardous materials.
