Etymology

The word roundswoman comes from rounds, meaning 'regular visits' or a 'route', and woman, so it names a woman who makes those visits, much like a postwoman who delivers mail along a fixed route. So, a roundswoman is a woman whose job is to deliver goods or inspect places on a regular route.
