Maneuvering Your Job Search Through a Pandemic

A global pandemic means times are uncertain, stressful and even a bit frightening. While the COVID-19 outbreak has not only caused a health crisis it has also caused an economic crisis as well...

How a Staffing Agency Can Get You a Job Faster Than You Could on Your Own

For instance, many job seekers avoid partnering with a staffing firm because they mistakenly believe that these agencies are strictly for those who want temporary work. They also don’t work with them because they think they must pay to work with a recruiter.

Misconceptions can hurt your efforts to find a job quickly.

For instance, many job seekers avoid partnering with a staffing firm because they mistakenly believe that these agencies are strictly for those who want temporary work. They also don’t work with them because they think they must pay to work with a recruiter.

These two perceptions are not true for all staffing agencies, so those people who hold on to these ideas could be missing out on an opportunity to enhance their chances of landing a dream job.

Finding the right job can be an overwhelming process, so it makes sense to take advantage of every available resource. And if you aren’t even considering partnering with a staffing agency, you’re missing out on a valuable resource. Here’s why:

Your Job Search Will be More Efficient

Searching for a job can be unnerving. Trying to find the right open jobs, researching potential employers, and setting up interviews can take up large chunks of your time. When you partner with a staffing agency, you’ll streamline the process and give focus and direction to your search.

You’ll Be Working With an Experienced Recruiter

Skilled recruiters ask the right questions:

  • What are your career goals?
  • What type of work environment are you seeking?
  • Would you prefer the flexibility of contract work?
  • What would you like to see in a future job that you don’t have now?

Armed with the answers, your recruiter can narrow the search and home in on the jobs that fit your criteria. They cut through all those job titles, confusing job descriptions, and postings and provide you with only those that make sense for you.

You Immediately Have Access to Numerous Employers and Jobs

Staffing agencies have hundreds, even thousands, of clients who are looking for workers just like you. The recruiters are continuously communicating with those who have the authority to hire you, and they take on the role of liaison between you and the hiring company. Because of the agency’s relationships, you will see job openings that are not available through the usual job sites. And your partnership with a staffing firm will allow you to have many more options than if you were searching on your own.

You Will Have Help Scheduling Interviews and Update Your Resume

Your recruiter will coordinate your interviews and assist you in preparing for them. Also, they will recommend ways to edit your resume so that it is tailored for the company to which you are applying. After you have been hired, your recruiter will follow up and stay in touch with you to make sure things are going well in your new position.

Why Is the OSHA-10 Training So Important?

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was founded in 1971, and during those 48 years, it has helped reduce workplace fatalities by 66%

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was founded in 1971, and during those 48 years, it has helped reduce workplace fatalities by 66%. Because of its training and safety requirements, it has been responsible for saving thousands of lives. 

Since construction workers have a fatality rate that’s larger than other industries, and since many skilled electrical workers end up in the construction industry, OSHA-10 training takes on added significance.

OSHA has identified four hazards in the construction industry that cause almost 80% of the worksite fatalities. They include the following hazards:

  • Falls: The deadliest of the dangers, falls account for 34% of all deaths.
  • Caught in or between: Caught-in or between injuries occur when a worker is squeezed, caught, crushed, compressed, or pinched between parts of an object or several objects.
  • Struck-by: This category includes all fatalities resulting from flying objects and those that move, fall, roll, and then strike a worker.
  • Electrocution:  Training for electrical hazards focuses on de-energizing circuits and then ensuring that no charge remains.

Why choose the OSHA 10 course?

Some business owners and managers initially question the effectiveness of a 10-hour course. Even though it’s short, the OSHA-10 program covers a variety of topics taught by industry experts and customized to fit your employees’ needs.

For example, if you send workers from the electrical industry, the instructors might focus on lockout/tagout training or provide instruction on arc flash prevention. The training has the added benefit of making your workers proactive in asking supervisors about safety practices before performing a hazardous task.

The OSHA 10-hour safety course helps workers identify, avoid, and correct on-the-job hazards. They learn to prevent electrical dangers they might not have known existed. The program is an affordable way toward a company culture of workplace safety.

What are some of the areas the training covers?

Of course, the training covers the four hazards that were touched upon earlier, including fall prevention, electrocution, struck-by, and caught-in, plus personal protective equipment, hazardous materials, electrical and chemical safety, and machine safety.

Because there is a reduction in workplace accidents from the OSHA-10 program, workers, businesses, and taxpayers save money.

The OSHA-10 certification is available through Outsource.

Four Ladder Safety Practices for Electricians

If you’re considering a career as an electrician, you need to understand that a ladder will be included in many of your workdays. If you’re already in the trade, it’s almost a sure thing that you’ll agree.

If you’re considering a career as an electrician, you need to understand that a ladder will be included in many of your workdays. If you’re already in the trade, it’s almost a sure thing that you’ll agree.

Ladders are as much a part of an electrician as a stethoscope is of a doctor. The difference is that when ladders are misused, it can lead to a fall that may cause a fatality or a serious injury.

Even if you are an experienced ladder user, it can’t hurt to re-visit some of the best practices for using them safely. If you’re just starting your career, take these suggestions seriously and learn how to be safe when you are several or more feet above the ground:

Read the labels and markings on the ladder

Note the ladder’s load rating and don’t exceed it with the weight it will be supporting, which should include any tools or equipment. Inspect the ladder before using it, and take it out of service if it’s damaged. Ensure that the ladder is free of any slippery material on the rungs or steps.

Use ladders and their accessories–ladder levelers, jacks, or hooks–for their designed purposes. Don’t use a step ladder as a single ladder or in a partially closed position. Be sure that all locks on an extension ladder are engaged before you get on it.

Use a ladder on level and stable surfaces only

Unless it has been secured at the top or bottom, use a ladder only on a firm and level surface. Never place a ladder in any area where other work activities could displace it unless it is secured or protected by a barrier to keep traffic away from it.

Never place a ladder on boxes, barrels, or any other unstable base to get additional height. And don’t shift or move a ladder while a person or equipment is on it.

Do not use the top step or rung of a ladder

Stay off the top step or rung of any ladder unless it was designed for that purpose. Always maintain a 3-point contact (two hands and a foot, or two feet and a hand) on the ladder while climbing. Also, keep your body near the middle of the step and face the ladder. 

If you’re using an extension or straight ladder to access an elevated surface, it must extend at least three feet above the point of support. The proper angle for setting up an extension ladder is to place its base a quarter of the working length of the ladder from the wall or vertical surface. Stay off the three top rungs of the ladder.

Watch out for electrical hazards

Check for overhead power lines before setting up a ladder. Never use a metal ladder near power lines or any exposed energized electrical equipment.

Beat the Heat: Tips for Working Safely in Hot Temperatures

There is still plenty of hot weather ahead, and if you’re working in one of those cabling and electrical jobs that requires you to be outdoors, you need to remain aware of the dangers that excessive heat can inflict.

There is still plenty of hot weather ahead, and if you’re working in one of those cabling and electrical jobs that requires you to be outdoors, you need to remain aware of the dangers that excessive heat can inflict.

Although thousands of workers become sick each year from over-exposure to heat, you don’t have to become one of them if you learn the warning signs and take the proper action. Here are some of the things you need to know to keep you from being the victim of high temperatures:

Heatstroke can be deadly

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) warns that heatstroke is the most serious of heat-stress disorders, which can also include heat exhaustion, heat cramps, and heat rashes. As the body temperature increases, sweaty hands and fogged-up goggles can also pose a safety threat. Workers at the highest risk are those who are overweight, have heart disease, take certain medications, or are 65 years of age or older.

In some cases, the body’s temperature can rise to 106 degrees Fahrenheit or higher in several minutes as the body stops sweating. The resulting heat stroke can cause death or permanent disability without emergency treatment. It’s critical to recognize heat stroke and take swift action.

The symptoms of heatstroke

Whenever the body no longer sweats, and its temperature reaches dangerous levels, you’ll notice the following:

  • Dry, hot reddish skin without sweat
  • Strong, rapid pulse
  • Confusion
  • Slurred speech
  • Chills

Other heat stresses can also be dangerous

Heat exhaustion occurs as the body loses water and salt. Look for these symptoms:

  • Excessive sweating
  • Muscle cramps
  • Weakness
  • Dizziness
  • Clammy skin
  • Confusion
  • Flushed complexion

Heat cramps are painful muscle cramps that happen because of low salt levels and excessive sweating.  Symptoms of heat cramps are muscle pain or spasms in the abdomen, arm, or legs.

Heat rash is an irritation of the skin caused by blocked pores that trap sweat under the skin. Heat rash can appear as a red cluster of pimples or small blisters, typically on the neck, upper chest, groin area, under the breasts, and in elbow creases.

Keep yourself safe in hot weather with these tips

  • Drink lots of fluids
  • Stay away from alcohol and caffeine
  • Stick with lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothing
  • Slow down and work at an even pace
  • Take your breaks out of the sun
  • Keep a damp rag around your neck
  • Use sunscreen and protect your head
  • Avoid the direct sun if possible
  • Eat smaller meals that include fruits and natural juices.

What Should Electrical Workers Wear? Investing in the Right Apparel for the Job

It’s a risk that electrical workers face every day on the job: Arc flashes occurring without warning and causing an injury that can be severe.

It’s a risk that electrical workers face every day on the job: Arc flashes occurring without warning and causing an injury that can be severe. The most serious of these burn injuries typically happen when clothing ignites and continues to burn, so it stands to reason that the right apparel – arc-rated (AR) and flame-resistant (FR) – can offer protection from these painful burns.

What Causes Arc Flashes?

  • Electrical worker error: Occasionally, workers fail to verify that there is no voltage. They might be using faulty voltage testers or forget about lockout/tag-out procedures. Overconfidence, complacency, and poor communication can all contribute to arc flashes.
  • Working on energized equipment: There are situations in which workers must work on hot equipment—hospitals are a perfect example. But there are times when workers believe they have the experience to work on energized equipment or they don’t de-energize because they are pressed for time.
  • Lack of equipment maintenance: When equipment is not regularly maintained, corrosion can build up and increase resistance and heat. Corrosion is one of the leading causes of equipment failure and arc flashes.

Electrical Workers Can Protect Themselves with Flame-Resistant Wear

Electrical workers are usually not burned severely by the arc flash itself. Instead, the significant injury occurs when non-FR clothing ignites and fuels the flame. The extent of the injury is increased with the worker experiencing severe and painful burns.

Flame-resistant apparel will self-extinguish, which lessens the burn injury since the source of ignition is removed. It also provides enough insulation to reduce the likelihood of second-degree burns significantly.

FR Daily-Wear is a Simple and Effective Solution

For the most common lower-energy work, wearing AR/FR daily-wear could be the solution. It takes away the guesswork of deciding whether a task requires arc-rated clothing, and it eliminates that extra step of getting into personal protective equipment (PPE) for a specific job. For high-energy tasks, however, the extra step of donning appropriate task-based PPE is recommended or required.

Match Your Clothing to the Hazard Levels

The National Electrical Safety Code (NESC) requires utilities to assess the hazards for employees working around energized equipment. If energy exceeds a certain level, workers must wear AR/FR clothing with an arc rating equal to or higher than the levels with which they work. 

Employers may be required to perform an arc-flash risk assessment to determine the potential energy level and the total area in which the hazard exists. Once the energy level and total area are determined, you can select the appropriate AR/FR clothing. Start by choosing a fabric that gives you the comfort and performance that meet the needs of your workplace and the tasks you’ll be performing.

Where Can You Learn New Skills for Electrical Training?

There are several paths you can take toward becoming an electrician. Formal education programs can lead to an Electrician Certificate or an Associate Degree.

There are several paths you can take toward becoming an electrician. Formal education programs can lead to an Electrician Certificate or an Associate Degree. Both of these are precursors to an apprenticeship program, which will result in you being a licensed electrician.

There are also company training programs that can get you started in your new career. One such program at Outsource prepares trainees for a position in structured cabling in the construction industry. It’s a great way to transition into a skilled trade, and we provide the training at no charge to you. No previous experience is required.

Consider the following advantages of our program.

You Will Acquire Experience and Knowledge

Our Field Employee Training Program provides quality entry-level low-voltage installers to our many clients throughout the country. Every trainee will learn data jack termination and will have terminated over one hundred data and voice jacks before being sent into the field. Also, they will have been introduced to the job site etiquette and professionalism that will help them accumulate positive referrals as they move up in their chosen careers.

You Will Obtain OSHA Certification

The program also consists of two days of OSHA training, after which you will be OSHA 10 certified.  The course teaches recognition, avoidance, lessening, and prevention of safety and health hazards at the job site. The certification provides you with the tools, safety equipment, and skills to begin working with Outsource’s clients right away.

You Will Find Work

Outsource employs over 2,000 technicians weekly on job sites across the country, and that figure is likely to increase as more jobs are added to the economy in future years. Current and projected shortages in skilled labor—such as electricians—make the prospects for steady employment even brighter.

Chris Trevino, Field Operations Manager for Outsource, talks about the benefits of structured cabling as a career option:

“A lot of those (added) jobs will go to skilled trade technicians in the construction industry, and structured cabling is a great skill to know. As you gain experience and knowledge, you will be given more responsibility on the job and have the opportunity to transition into other areas of structured cable, including A/V and security installation.”

It’s a Fast Track to a Paycheck

All training is done onsite at Outsource and is completed within a week. The company offers a bonus program for its field technicians:  After 520 hours on the job, they will reward you with a $200 bonus and a 6-foot ladder. There are also bonus increases at 1,040 hours and 2,080 hours.

Let Outsource Help You Jumpstart Your Career!

If you are an aspiring trade worker, Outsource can create a career opportunity by providing hands-on training by qualified trainers in a single week. If this sounds interesting to you, contact us for more information. We are the largest staffing firm in the nation specializing in the placement of low voltage and electrical talent.

A Bright Future: Outlook for Growth in Cabling and Electrical Jobs

you’ve ever thought about becoming an electrician, now would be the time to act on it.

If you’ve ever thought about becoming an electrician, now would be the time to act on it. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of electricians is projected to grow nine percent from 2016 to 2026. New construction and the growing demand for alternative energy sources will fuel much of the job growth.

Those electricians who can take on a variety of assignments–solar photovoltaic installation, industrial wiring, and electronic systems repairs—will have the most opportunities.

Solar and wind are just two of the emerging power industries that will be requiring more electricians to install and maintain them. As time goes on, electricians will be needed in higher numbers to connect these alternative power sources to both homes and power grids.

Here are a few factors to consider as you contemplate your future as an electrician:

Our infrastructure is aging

The electrical grid in the U.S. is growing old. It’s becoming unreliable and obsolete, which means there will be a need for many electricians and skilled linesmen to update our transmission and generation facilities. The process will be labor-intensive, and that is good news for future job prospects.

New industries are emerging

Alternative energy systems, with wind and solar leading the pack, will require highly-skilled workers to get them up and running and to link them to the existing electrical networks.

New technology installed in current systems

Automation and electronics will be added to existing systems in a variety of industries. Electrical workers will be needed to install, operate, and maintain this equipment, increasing the demand for electricians for the foreseeable future.

A general shortage of skilled labor

The demand for electrical workers is increasing because there is a shortage of skilled labor in every industry. One factor is that the so-called baby boomers have retired or are planning to leave the workforce shortly, which means a significant number of replacement workers will be required to fill the void.

Also, the 2008 financial crisis resulted in an economic decline that caused many employers to curb hiring and cut apprenticeship programs. Because of the combination of these two factors, there will be a substantial reduction in the number of skilled electricians at a time of increasing demand.

There are no quick-fixes

Skilled workers, such as electricians, must go through a rather lengthy training process in either a vocational education program or an extended apprenticeship period. Unlike unskilled entry-level labor, increasing the supply of electricians and other skilled workers cannot be accomplished in a short time. Vocational education programs and long apprenticeship periods mean that it takes time to increase the pool of qualified workers.

Many high schools have begun promoting skilled trades as an attractive alternative to a four-year college. And some community programs are now raising awareness of the benefits of a career as an electrician or in the other skilled trades.
