Assembly worker wood technology (bbl)

Making one whole from all kinds of separate parts

As an assembly worker, you assemble all kinds of separate parts into a single unit. For example, frames, windows, doors, and timber frame structures. You do this together with your colleagues. It is a big puzzle, but one that has to be accurate down to the millimeter.

Window frames, windows, or doors are delivered to the construction site in parts. You cut these parts to the exact size. Afterwards, you pack them neatly so they do not get damaged. You know exactly which part goes where. You also know which tools or equipment to use for this. You work very accurately and safely, and you also pay attention to the environment.

During the training, you will learn how to work safely with equipment and tools. You will also learn how to assemble and put together parts. Furthermore, you will receive explanations regarding all the materials you work with, such as wood or plastic. You will also learn everything about the rules and requirements that the products must meet.
