Complete accurate daily dry logs, moisture maps, photographs, equipment records, notes, and field updates in company-approved applications such as MICA (pronounced “Mika”) and/or Mitigate.
Follow written scopes, work authorizations, safety plans, and supervisor direction; promptly report conditions that may require a change in scope.
Protect customer belongings and occupied spaces; maintain professional, respectful communication with property owners, tenants, adjusters, trade partners, and coworkers.
Maintain clean jobsites, vehicles, tools, and equipment; report damaged or missing equipment promptly.
Participate in after-hours, weekend, and emergency-response rotations as scheduled.
