Laborers’ work includes excavation, footing and foundations, carpenter tending, compaction, concrete placement, power and hand tools, welding, general clean-up and mason tending. Environmental laborers do asbestos removal, hazardous waste and radiation clean-up. The work performed by laborers is very physical and it includes digging, carrying, pulling and bending— usually outside in all kinds of weather for long hours at a time. See more at www.liuna.org.
