  • Minimum 2 years of direct abatement experience

  • Own PPE preferred (respirator, suits, gloves, boots) — can be provided if needed
  • Physically fit and able to work in dusty, hot, or confined conditions
  • Access to reliable transportation
  • Strong work ethic, reliability, and ability to work independently
