construction laborer helpers

***RFI Response***

The Construction Laborer Helper will support specialized construction

crews in the assembly and installation of light-gauge prefabricated metal wall

systems, metal decking, and temporary shoring under direct supervision. The

worker will assist with framing, prefab wall installation, and general

construction tasks by loading, unloading, staging, sorting, and manually carrying light-gauge steel studs, metal tracks, corrugated metal decking,

prefabricated wall panels, and related construction materials throughout the

worksite. The worker will hold and stabilize materials while skilled workers

position and secure them, assist with layout by using tape measures and laser

levels to verify measurements and alignment, prepare work areas, organize hardware and materials, remove debris, collect steel scrap, and perform

general site cleanup. The worker will also assist with moving ladders, tools,

and equipment as directed. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is required

and provided by the employer at no cost. Tools and equipment used include

tape measures, laser levels, ladders, brooms, shovels, manual hand tools, hard hats, safety vests, safety glasses, gloves, and fall protection lanyards.

The prefabricated structural components consist of light-gauge steel wall

panels, cold-formed steel studs, metal framing tracks, corrugated steel floor

and roof decking, temporary shoring components, wood wall bracing, and

related metal framing components used in commercial building construction.

These components are manufactured primarily from galvanized cold-formed steel, with temporary wood bracing used to stabilize wall systems during

installation. The Construction Laborer Helper assists in positioning, aligning,

and holding these prefabricated components while skilled workers

permanently secure them using bolts, screws, anchors, or other fastening

methods appropriate for the project
