A broom shroud that reduces the tendency of the broom handle to disassociate therefrom in view of forces encountered during use, the broom shroud comprising a broom shroud housing having a neck member having a bore, the neck member comprising a threaded collet or exterior neck portion having a plurality of vertical through slots, and a socket or interior neck portion; an internally threaded locking cap adapted to engage the collet, and means for securing bristles to the housing. Fastening the cap to the housing compresses the slotted portions of the collet, the collet tightly engaging the broom handle received by the bore. Preferably, the socket has a threaded section to receive a threaded end of the broom handle, thereby providing dual fastening means for the handle to the shroud.
