Summary
Specialist who performs on-site work from excavation for septic tank installation to placement, pipe connection, and backfilling.
Description
Septic tank installers are on-site workers who install septic tanks to treat wastewater from households or facilities. First, they conduct site surveys based on construction drawings and excavate using heavy machinery such as backhoes. They place the septic tank in the designated position, confirm levelness, and connect the water supply and drainage pipes. After leak inspections at connection points, backfilling, and compaction, the work is completed. The work involves extensive outdoor physical labor, requiring flexible responses to weather and soil conditions. Safety and health management and compliance with related laws and regulations are also essential.
