Role overview

A welder and fabricator helper is required to support welders and fabricators in metal workshops and on engineering and construction sites. You move steel, prepare surfaces and keep the bay safe, and you do not carry out welding that needs trade authorisation. AED 1,000 to 1,700 a month, indicative.

  • Help position and hold fabricated parts during fitting
  • Load and unload steel from trucks using the crew's lifting method
  • Sweep metal dust and offcuts and sort scrap
  • Wear welding-area protection: gloves, goggles, ear protection and safety boots

Requirements

  • No trade qualification needed
  • Able to follow instructions in Hindi or basic English
  • Willing to work with noise, heat, sparks and heavy metal
  • Willingness to learn grinder and fire-watch safety
  • Punctual and alert

  • Workshop housekeeping
  • Cylinder safety
  • Teamwork

About the work

You handle the heavy and routine tasks around the welding bay: moving plate and sections, grinding edges and cleaning up. The welder or fabricator does the skilled welding. The helper supports qualified tradespeople and does not carry out work that needs a licence or trade authorisation. Grinding and fire-watch are done where trained.

Ideal candidate

An attentive person who takes fire and safety rules seriously and does not mind noisy, hot workshops. Helpers with grinding skills may sit at the higher end of the range. Some helpers move up to welding or fabrication with experience, though this is a possibility and not a promise.
