SUMMARY:
Maintenance employees are expected to perform all preventative maintenance and maintenance-related functions associated with a boat building yard. This includes, but is not limited to repairing, maintaining, installing and fabricating various facility and production systems and equipment. Maintenance employees are expected to prepare, plan and implement preventative maintenance schedules for all production and yard equipment so as to keep equipment operating properly and continuously. They must have experience in mechanical, electrical, electronic, plumbing, hydraulics, HVAC, structural and other facilities and production related maintenance projects. They must be able to work independently from prints, manuals, sketches, etc. They must be capable of troubleshooting all types of facility and production system problems.
WORKING MATERIALS:
Must be able to work with all types of wiring, piping, air and fluid lines, machinery, machine tools, etc.
TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT:
Must be able to use test equipment, such as voltmeters, ammeters, power supplies, etc. Must be able to use hand and power tools and operate motor vehicles, forklifts and other lifting aids.
Each person must directly supply their own hand tools per the attached tool list and must have them available in the yard and in working order throughout their employment period.
SKILL LEVELS AND ADVANCEMENT:
Maintenance employees are categorized into three different skill levels beginning with level 1, with the highest level being 3. The advancement of an employee to a higher skill/wage level shall be made only when the Company has a continuing need for an employee to perform work at that level and when the employee convincingly meets the next level’s criteria. An employee’s immediate supervisor may recommend that they be advanced. This nomination will be reviewed by at least the Director of Facilities for approval with input from other Managers.
Employees should expect that based on the ability of the person involved, they may move up a level or stay at the current level for longer periods than others working around them. In extremely rare cases, some may remain at their current skill level indefinitely. Although this would not be the Company’s goal, and likely not the goal of most employees, management does recognize that certain individuals are either unable or unwilling to learn the skills required to attain a higher level. Some employees may learn and adapt more quickly than others.
We are equally committed to creating an environment of continuous learning, creativity and process improvement whereby our wealth of talent and knowledge may be grown and developed on behalf of ourselves, Burger Boat Company and its customers.
