• Install and connect lighting, receptacles, disconnects, starters and motor control equipment
• Work from electrical drawings, panel schedules and single line diagrams

• Third year (third period) apprentice electrician, registered and in good standing with Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training
• Technical training periods completed and passed to date, with a record of your hours
• Solid conduit bending, cable pulling and termination ability, and comfortable working from drawings
• Own hand tools, CSA approved safety boots, and a valid Class 5 licence with reliable transportation
• Current tickets: CSTS-2020 or PST, Standard First Aid with CPR, and Fall Protection

• Aerial work platform, scissor lift or forklift tickets
• H2S Alive, and a current oil and gas site orientation on file

• Successful completion of comprehensive Fitness-to-Work Assessment. This assessment is job-related, focusing on the physical demands and safety sensitive nature of the work, and is conducted in accordance with Alberta Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) requirements and the Alberta Human Rights Act. The assessment will cover:
  • Health History Review: A thorough examination of the candidate's health background.
  • Pre-Medical Evaluation: Measurements such as height, weight, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation.
  • Musculoskeletal Examination: A head-to-toe assessment to identify any limitations or concerns related to physical health.

• Worker to provide proof of apprenticeship registration and standing with Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training, valid safety training tickets, a valid driver's licence, and CSA approved safety boots (minimum 6 inch, fully laceable)

Employment is conditional upon successfully meeting all of the pre-employment requirements listed above.
