Laborers must have a working knowledge of all work performed by other building trades because they are tenders and helpers of many other crafts. Tasks include but are not limited to: road, highway, bridge, and tunnel building and repair, site preparation and cleanup, laying underground pipe and placing cement. Additionally, they often operate small power tools and work in demolition. Most of the skills train‐ ing for laborer apprentices is conducted at the New England Laborer's Training Trust Fund Training Academy in Hopkinton, MA.
