It is a class three lever. The fulcrum is the end point, the effort is in the middle, the place where you grip, and the load is the things you are sweeping away.

Yes, a standard broom is actually considered to be a class 3 lever (when the top hand is fixed and the force is exerted by the lower hand). It is a class 1 lever if the lower hand is stationary and only the top hand exerts force (opposite direction of sweeping). In reality, both hands are typically exerting force.

It is a third class lever because the fulcrum is on the left, the effort force is in the middle, and the resistance force is on the end.
