Inspect hand tools and compaction equipment before use and report defects immediately.
Assist with fueling, cleaning, greasing, and basic equipment maintenance when directed.
Maintain jobsite housekeeping and remove trip hazards, debris, and unnecessary materials.
Follow instructions from the Superintendent, foremen, competent persons, and equipment operators.
Stop work and report unsafe conditions, damaged utilities, unstable soil, groundwater, or unexpected site conditions.
Perform other underground construction and general labor duties as assigned.
