Snow Cleaners

Job description

***RFI Response***
Snow shelters are used on concrete construction sites to keep the temperatures high so that concrete can properly set when the outside temperatures are cold. Snow shelters are erected by snow cleaners under the supervision of the foremen, using basic materials such as two-inch by four-inch or four-inch by four-inch lumber that is fastened together temporarily and covered with reinforced plastic or canvas. Once covered, diesel heaters will pump warm air through hoses into the shelters long enough for the concrete to properly set. The snow shelters are erected following a basic, repetitious pattern and the lumber is preserved and used again if possible. Going forward however,
there will be no opportunities for the Employer’s snow cleaners to engage in duties pertaining to snow shelters.

Salt is spread on sidewalks, doorways, working areas, parking lots, and access points using a salt spreader.

The Employer clarifies that the Snow Cleaners will not remove snow via operating a truck with a snowplow attached to the front of the truck or another power operated vehicle. (Emphasis added). Rather the equipment used will be a snow shovel, snow broom and snow blower.
