LOAD BUILDER - 2nd SHIFT

Description

* Please do not apply if you are looking to make this a 2nd job. This is a full-time position working on our 2nd shift.

The load builders are responsible for rigging and loading steel so it may be sent through the galvanizing process. Load builders are required to attach rigging to large, intricately shaped pieces of material – knowledge of weight capacities, rigging types, and center of gravity is required. The safe and secure attachment of rigging is crucial to the efficiency and safety of the operation.

• Sort and prepare material to be loaded – this may include using power tools to drill holes, attaching wire and/or chains, lifting material both manually and with the use of cranes
• Place material in the load to be processed – this may entail making decisions about location, placement, weights, rigging type/location
• Material may be loaded individually, or grouped together in larger carrying devices – communication with supervisors and picklers must be maintained to stay on schedule
• Become certified to operate overhead cranes

Note: The following physical and environmental considerations apply:

• Frequent lifting of material up to 20 pounds
• Occasional lifting of material up to 50 pounds
• Frequent bending, squatting, kneeling
• Constant material handling
• Repetitive hand motions
• Seasonal outdoor temperatures – shade, drinking water, shelter during rain storms provided
