The current vacancy is in the Carpentry assignment with the Facilities Management Department; however, this recruitment will also be used to establish a Citywide list to fill possible future vacancies in other departments. A Trades Worker I performs journey-level work in carpentry and/or painting and may also perform some entry-level to journey-level work in one or more mechanical equipment trades (electrical; plumbing; evaporative coolers; and Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning/Refrigeration [HVAC/R]). Duties involve the maintenance, repair, alteration, and construction of fixtures, equipment, and facilities. Employees in this class may serve as a lead worker over a small crew for specific projects. This class is responsible for performing related duties as required. The Trades Worker I class performs building trades work or some combination of building trades work and mechanical equipment trades work. This class is distinguished from the Facilities Equipment Technician I, in that incumbents in the latter position primarily perform mechanical trades work and are licensed, as and/or function, as specialists (example: electricians, plumbers, etc.) in their respective mechanical trade. A Trades Worker I is supervised by a foreman, or other supervisory classification (by assignment), who reviews work through work orders, conferences, and spot-checking for results achieved. Employees are required to use appropriate safety procedures and equipment in completing assigned duties. This class works with a high degree of independence which requires good judgment and initiative in determining the methods and procedures that will be used for each job or project. Employees in this class are subject to a yearly rotational 24-hour call-out (by assignment). This class is FLSA nonexempt.
