Skilled Worker General Construction, $28 per hr

Brigade Fire Protection is looking to hire workers for installing Fire Sprinkler Systems at $28 per hour. The work we are offering currently is temporary, we need to hire about one to two people for about three weeks starting from 5/23, however, if the workload continues, we may look to have you work longer.

Please read this entire ad before contacting us for an interview.

The work consists of fabricating pipe, prepping materials, drilling holes, installing pipe hangers, tightening and loosening pipe, etc. You'll have to be comfortable with climbing and working off of ladders. Construction experience is a plus but you do not have to have experience in this particular trade of Fire Sprinkler Installation.

Some of the work is heavy, physical work. Please understand that you must be reasonable fit and okay with pushing and pulling on pipe wrenches through the course of a day.
But note we always look for easier ways to get the job done. When you find that the job you're working on is a little difficult it would be okay for you to let us know and take it at a slower pace. Like all companies we require reasonable production, but we don't expect you to over do it.

You have to be on time and you must have your own transportation, you must have a Social Security Card and you must have an ID. There is absolutely no “under the table” pay or advances whatsoever. If we think you're going to have a problem with not arriving at work on time we will have to let you go. The workday will likely be from 8 to 4:30 with a 30 minute lunch but this may vary with the particular jobs you are working on.

The pay period will be from Saturday to Friday (the work days will almost always be Monday through Friday). Checks will be available on the Wednesday following the pay-period ending Friday.

NOTE, if you gain employment through Craigslist, or some other means, be aware that employers are bound by Florida Law to pay, and in the event you do not receive a paycheck, you may contact the Florida Department of Labor, 1-866-4-USA-DOL , and they will do a complete investigation. Construction companies especially are required to provide payroll as well as Worker's Compensation insurance. (And, note that Construction workers are actually able to place a “lien” on a construction project if they are not paid.) Our Corporate license is P00000021407. We've been in business for 25 years and are fully licensed and insured.

You will be working with one of our journeyman. They will be showing you what you have to do while they're busy with other tasks. Please understand that they will show you where you may have to climb ladders or go up on lifts to install the piping (again, not too fast or too heavy) while they stay mostly on the ground. This is because they are older and we need more physically fit individuals to install the piping. Also, they may sometimes leave the job to do other service work, or pick up plans, or drop off a permit, or meet with a customers. You must be okay with working while someone is not there. Again, you don't have to work too hard or too fast, just with reasonable, normal, production.

On some projects we may have you working with other individuals. You must be okay with working with other people.

Please call Wil at (561) 315-5750 if you are interested.
