• Perform touch-up work with paint as needed to correct minor imperfections on galvanized metal.

Work Environment

This position is based in a dirty and dusty manufacturing and foundry-style environment that supports hot-dip galvanizing of raw steel, specifically in the non-molten dipping process area. The facility is loud, and hearing protection is required at all times in designated areas. The workspace is not temperature controlled, so summers can be hot and winters cold, and you will work closely with a team of approximately 8–10 other laborers.

Day shift typically runs from 4:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. with breaks from 9:00–9:15 a.m. and 11:00–11:30 a.m. Night shift runs from 2:30 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. with breaks from 5:00–5:15 p.m. and 7:30–8:00 p.m. Overtime is a regular part of the schedule: during peak periods such as August, every Saturday is required, and after that, Saturdays are worked on a rotating basis for day and night shifts.

The dress code requires durable work clothing such as jeans and a long-sleeve shirt (or the use of arm sleeves), along with steel-toed boots and metatarsal guards to ensure proper protection in this heavy industrial setting.
