. GENERAL STATEMENT OF DUTIES: Operation of a variety of machines ranging from a six-ton or ten-ton overhead crane to a finning machine. Responsibilities range from loading/unloading materials onto/off of machines and semi-trailers; bending or finning tubing; and ensuring quality of tubes being shipped out. SUPERVISION RECEIVED: Reports directly to SBM. SUPERVISION EXERCISED: None. TYPICAL PHYSICAL DEMANDS: Requires full range of body motion to include: constant lifting, bending, twisting, kneeling, pushing, pulling, stooping, squatting, climbing, and reaching outward and overhead. Such activities are often performed in tight, awkward positions to place and remove crane slings over and around bales of tubing while hooking sling "eyes" onto crane hook. Requires climbing on stacks of tubing to heights of six feet in order to locate bales of tubing to secure crane slings in order to move bales of tubing with overhead crane. The ability to maintain one's balance while performing the required work tasks is essential. Requires frequent unassisted lifting of a variety of objects from various positions, which range in weight from 5 to 50 pounds with an average weight of 34-37 pounds. This lifting requirement includes lifting bunks to stack tubing at floor level and up to six feet high. Requires operating banding equipment to bundle tubes. This task consists of wrapping and securing metal banding around the bundle of tubes, taking a tensioner to tighten the metal bands around the tubes, and using a crimper to secure the banding around the tubes with a clip. Requires placing multiple metal bands on each bundle of tubing as determined by weight and size of tubing that is being shipped. Performing the above functions requires bending at the waist and reaching across to wrap the banding around the tubing. Position requires frequent walking and/or standing on concrete floor during a 10-hour shift while wearing steel-toed shoes. May walk one mile while performing duties in a 10-hour shift. Requires corrected vision and hearing to normal range. Utilizes a variety of hand positions to work equipment controls and maneuver tubes throughout manufacturing process. Most jobs are fast paced and the ability to deal with stress is essential. TYPICAL WORKING CONDITIONS: Indoor, manufacturing environment with regular exposure to loud and prolonged noise. Noise exposure is constant, which includes the noise of machinery and overhead cranes. Noise exposure also includes frequent and extremely loud clanging sounds caused from metal tubing banging against each other during processing. Employees are required to wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to include noise/hearing protection, safety glasses with side shields and steel toed work shoes. Employee work 12 hour shifts experiencing regular exposure to hot temperatures of 95° F to 110° F in the summer due to the combination of the actual outside temperature and heat from the processes inside the facility. Employees are also exposed to cold temperatures, which is dependent on the actual outside temperature. .
