Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A manufacturing job that mixes cement and fiber materials to form, dry, and finish slate boards for roofs and exterior walls.
Description
Cement slate workers measure and mix raw materials blended with fiber materials into cement mortar, and form them into slate board shapes using rolling mills or forming machines. They then ensure strength through drying and curing processes, perform cutting and finishing work, and handle the entire process up to quality inspection and packaging. Machine operation, maintenance management, and safety and health management are important, and heavy equipment or forklifts may be used. Product dimensional accuracy and quality control are required.
Future Outlook
While there is stable demand as roofing and exterior wall materials for housing and facilities, the introduction of environmentally friendly materials and labor-saving/automation technologies is advancing, so higher skill requirements and process management sophistication are expected.
