Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A worker at civil engineering construction sites who transports concrete using mixer trucks or pump trucks and supports placement operations.
Description
Concrete transport workers operate mixer trucks or pump trucks at civil engineering construction sites to transport concrete of the specified mix to the site and supply it to each placement point. They monitor slump, mix proportions, hopper and piping conditions to maintain quality while ensuring smooth placement. They collaborate with site supervisors, formworkers, and rebar workers to manage safety and adjust work progress. They cope with harsh weather and high-altitude work environments, and also handle post-construction cleanup and equipment maintenance.
Future Outlook
Stable job demand is expected due to needs for infrastructure maintenance and urban development. Skilled workers can advance to construction management roles. While automation and AI will improve machinery operation efficiency, human-dependent tasks such as site supervision and quality control will remain necessary for the foreseeable future.
