LABORER

Hands-on crew work removing old copper telephone cable: pulling and handling cable in the field, supporting manhole operations, and loading, cutting support, and stacking at the yard.

Duties

• Pull, guide, coil, and handle recovered cable as directed by the foreman and the puller operator.
• Support manhole work from the surface - tending lines, tools, and materials. Confined-space entry only if trained and assigned.
• Load and unload cable and materials; band, weigh, tag, and stack bundles at the yard.
• Work under the lead-safety rules every day: wear the PPE issued, use the decon area, wash hands and face before breaks and before leaving, and never take work clothing home.
• Clean work areas using HEPA vacuum or wet methods only. No dry sweeping, no compressed air.
• Follow all safety procedures and stop work and speak up any time something looks unsafe.

Requirements

• 18 or older. No experience required - we train.
• Pass a pre-employment drug screening.
• Able to work a full 12-hour shift on your feet and lift and handle heavy cable and materials.
• Reliable transportation and a working phone.
• Able to work overtime and weekends as the job requires.

WORKING CONDITIONS (BOTH POSITIONS)

Outdoor project work in all weather. 12-hour shifts, project schedules that can run six to seven days a week, and travel to job sites. The cable is lead-sheathed: all PPE is provided, all safety and lead training is provided and paid, and the safety rules are strict and non-negotiable.
