An Ironworker is a skilled construction worker who plays an essential role in building large structures like warehouses, industrial plants, medical office buildings, data centers, stadiums and many others.  Being an ironworker is a physically strenuous job that requires you to be able to wear a safety harness with all the required tools and PPE for a full day.  Some of their duties include rigging, connecting, welding and onsite fabrication with the use of large equipment including cranes, forklifts, boom lifts, scissor lifts, welding machines and other smaller hand tools.
