custodial
Related to oversight
Custodial relates to custody—the care, guardianship, or safekeeping of something or someone.
A custodial parent has legal responsibility for a child.
Custodial care involves looking after those who can't care for themselves.
The word also describes cleaning and maintenance work: custodial staff, custodial services.
A custodial sentence is one served in prison rather than in the community.
