Work involves the use of skilled trade knowledge to install, clean, repair or replace various facility components.

Work requires the ability to read and understand manuals, blueprints and schematics to determine assembly or repair needs; skilled use of a variety of tools; skill in performing painting, carpentry, plumbing, masonry and welding tasks; and the ability to address preventative and scheduled maintenance.
