Production Workers
Employees who form the backbone of every organization!

The salary range is from $21,000 to $45,000 annually. Travel for training in new production techniques is sometimes required. Production Workers are experienced cutters and sawyers. They can also have skills in sanding, assembling, and finishing. Generally these skills would have been acquired through training or experience. Further training and experience may result in promotional opportunities. The most important essential skills are oral communications and working with others.
