Work standard

A suitable pipefitter works from the drawing, checks dimensions before installation and protects finished components from damage. Speed does not compensate for incorrect levels, poor support spacing, misaligned flanges or inaccessible valves.

The candidate must be able to identify clashes, missing materials and unsafe access early enough for the supervisor to resolve them without avoidable rework.
