Construction Jobs



In general the construction sector is expected to be good for construction trades workers that are experienced and skilled, and payments in this sector are relatively high. It is important to keep in mind that a large number of workers in this sector are self-employed.
There is a large variety of products in this sector, from offices to bridges and from factories to schools, the options seem endless, not to mention that repair, maintenance and improvement of buildings are also fields in the sector.
Though there are many segments within the construction sector we can say that the three major ones are:
- Construction of buildings, mainly coordinated or done by specialized general contractors that build commercial and industrial products, and many others.
- Civil engineering construction, related to the USA´s infrastructure.
- Specialty trade construction, done by specialized contractors that work at all construction level.
Construction workers mostly work full time, with an average of over 40 hours a week with almost 20% of workers in this sector working around 45 hours per week in 2008. Emergencies may force construction employees to work even during holidays and Sundays.

The construction sector is highly physically-demanding, and sometimes workers need physical stamina. Weather exposure is also frequent and so this job is recommended for people that are in good physical condition. This job is also risky as workers handle potentially dangerous equipment and so they are more exposed to injuries than workers from other sectors.

In 2008, construction offered 7.2 million jobs and 1.8 self-employed positions, ranking as one of the largest industries in the country that year.
