  • Support jobsite safety by assisting with daily inspections, monitoring proper use of personal protective equipment, following company and OSHA requirements, and promptly reporting unsafe conditions.
  • Document project progress through photographs and field observations, help prepare and complete punch lists, protect completed work from damage, and keep tools and equipment organized.

  • A basic understanding of construction tools, materials, and jobsite safety practices.
  • The ability to read a tape measure and perform basic construction math.
