- Safety Mindset: Strict adherence to PPE requirements (helmet, eye protection, steel-toed boots, and ear protection) and safe tool handling.
- Licensing: Valid Driver’s License required; a Clean Driving Record or CDL is a major plus.
- Attributes: Strong communication skills, punctuality, and a team-first attitude.
