Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Telecommunications line stringing workers install telecommunications cables on utility poles or buildings, and perform connection, maintenance, and removal work. High-altitude work, handling of heavy objects, and safety management are required.
Description
Telecommunications line stringing workers use utility poles and line stringing materials to string telecommunications cables (such as copper wires and fiber optics), and perform wiring and connection work at designated locations. They adjust cable tension, perform insulation treatment, conduct inspections and repairs during abnormalities, and handle troubleshooting. Much of the work involves high-altitude work vehicles and cranes, with safety harnesses used, and teams work efficiently and safely to complete construction. They also confirm wiring diagrams before and after work and perform measurements using measuring instruments.
Future Outlook
With the expansion of 5G and fiber optic network development, demand is expected to remain stable. As automation technologies and remote monitoring are introduced, the value of workers with specialized skills will increase.
