Safety is the most important part of all jobs within Nucor; therefore, candidates must be able to demonstrate the ability to initiate, lead, and uphold safety policies, practices, procedures, and housekeeping standards at all times.

  • Follow all company and OSHA safety procedures - attend safety meetings and look out for yourself and your teammates
  • Operate heavy equipment including cranes, loaders, and similar machines - safely and efficiently
  • Load scrap material onto shredder feed conveyors, push shred piles, move material throughout the yard, and load trucks and railcars

  • Keep the yard clear of debris and maintain a clean, safe work environment
  • Jump on small equipment - forklifts or skid steers - when the job calls for it
  • Handle general labor duties including sweeping, shoveling, and clean-up anywhere in the yard
  • Communicate over radio with teammates for traffic coordination, production updates, and safety
  • Cross-train in other positions and support teammates wherever you're needed
You'll be running the heaviest equipment on the yard - your skill and hustle directly drive production. The harder you work, the more you earn. 3 years of heavy equipment experience required.
