sheet metal worker (EN)
ISCO 7213 · v1.2.1
Sheet metal workers in construction use sheet metal to construct roofs, ducts for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning, gutters and other metal structures. They read plans and determine the type and amount of materials to be used, then measure, bend, cut, shape, and attach pieces of sheet metal to create the required structure.
Classification skills are not a measurement of your proficiency or future displaced hours.
