Class Concept

Positions perform skilled work and specialize in at least one trade in connection with the maintenance, repair and/or construction of buildings and facilities and related equipment and machinery. Positions function at the journey level in a skilled trade such as carpentry, cabinet making, roofing, painting, or other trades that are less technical and complex. Positions may also perform work at or near the journey level in more technical trades including electrical, plumbing, masonry, heating and air, or similar specializations. Work assignments are moderately complex in nature. Positions assist higher level trades specialists in the completion of non-routine and complex projects. Work is performed independently, but positions often refer unusual work problems to a supervisor for consideration and final determination. Work may involve providing technical guidance to other positions engaged in semiskilled or unskilled work.
