What They Do

Logging workers in this category perform specialized tasks in the forest products industry that support the overall timber harvesting process. They work outdoors in forests and logging sites, often in remote locations and challenging terrain. These workers might operate specialized equipment not covered by other logging classifications, maintain and repair machinery in the field, or assist with tasks like measuring timber volumes, marking trees for cutting, or managing logging roads and work sites. Some focus on salvage operations, recovering timber from areas affected by fires or storms, while others specialize in clearing brush and debris or preparing sites for replanting.
