Overview of Lineworker Pre-Apprentice Program |
| |
The Lineworker Pre-Apprentice position is a paid, six-month training position designed to help employees gain the necessary skills to become Lineworker Apprentices. Class members are hired together and are temporary employees on a six-month probation. Each day, employees report to work with a crew, experience the tasks and assist with some of the chores. Three afternoons a week, Pre-Apprentices report to the Physical Workout facility for Occupationally Pertinent Fitness with the Fitness Trainer. Instruction in pole climbing begins gradually once a week.
Before graduation into the Apprenticeship Program, employees must successfully pass a Graduation Physical Strength Test and a 15-day Climbing School Program. Those who pass will enter the four-year Lineworker Apprenticeship and will be hired by Seattle City Light as regular employees with full benefits.
