Job description

This is an opportunity for skilled Carpenters with Floor Laying experience to gain employment on several long term projects with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America in Green Bay Wisconsin. www.northcountrycarpenter.org

UBC Carpenters are seeking for immediate employment experienced Journeyman Carpenters with prior experience Floor Laying. The pay ranges depending on experience from $25.65 to 38.80 on the check and a highly competitive benefit package of 27.33 per hour.

**Requirements**

Carpenters are some of the first workers on a job site, and some of the last to leave. They assist in site preparation; build concrete forms and decks; frame walls and roofs; hang interior and exterior walls; install windows, doors, acoustical ceilings, cabinetry, counter tops and trim; and install locks, hardware and specialty furniture.

Carpenters work on almost any construction site imaginable, including new construction and remodeling, such as single-family homes; condominium and apartment projects; office towers, corporate and industrial buildings; new and remodeled hospitals, malls, stores and offices; and public projects such as stadiums, arenas, roads, bridges, schools and university buildings.

Carpenters need more than just good math and geometry skills; they have to be tough and flexible, able to work indoors or out, in the summer heat and humidity or in the bitter cold and snow of winter.

Areas of need for the job

• Floor coverers install a wide variety of flooring materials, including carpet, resilients, wood, laminates, and sport surfaces. UBC floor covering professionals are experts at estimating materials, understanding pattern layout, and safely and properly employing the industry’s many tools, adhesives, and fastening systems. Carpenters must also learn other vital skills, including First Aid and OSHA safety; scaffolding; blueprint reading; using a transit, level and laser; operating equipment such as fork lifts and aerial lifts; and setting up conventions and other interior displays.
