About The Position

The Asbestos Worker performs asbestos abatement and related field operations in accordance with regulatory standards and Tasman’s safety-first protocols. Working closely with crew members, the role removes asbestos-containing materials such as industrial pipe wrap and gaskets. This is a primarily field-based position with minimal local travel, typically within one hour and occasionally up to 2.5 hours. The position supports projects at federal facilities in Boulder, Colorado, and reports to a Supervisor / Project Leadership. Work includes completing daily timecards and Job Safety Analysis (JSA) forms, submitting incident reports as needed, communicating with supervisors and crew members, and documenting daily activities. Abatement duties include safely removing, handling, packaging, and disposing of asbestos-containing materials; maintaining tools and equipment; wearing required PPE; and following regulatory, company, and site safety requirements. Other field tasks include general labor, site preparation, cleanup, restoration, and securing job sites at the end of the workday. The position is full-time, non-exempt, on site, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Occasional evenings and weekends may be required based on project needs, and overtime opportunities may be available. Work takes place primarily outdoors and in field environments, with exposure to varying weather, asbestos-containing materials, and contaminated areas. The role involves uneven terrain and physically demanding work, including occasionally lifting up to 50 pounds, standing for extended periods, and walking, bending, kneeling, reaching, and frequently using hands and tools. Federal facility access requires U.S. citizenship, successful completion of required pre-employment and site-specific background screenings and drug testing, eligibility to obtain and maintain required access credentials or security clearances, and compliance with applicable federal, client, and site security requirements. Failure to obtain or maintain required credentials may affect project assignment or continued employment.
