General Guidelines
Due to varied types of jobs, it is not possible to set down exact job descriptions for each person since different jobs take different amount of people. However, the Mechanic should be the main producer installing material. If he has an Apprentice, the Apprentice should be instructed to perform work of less importance compared to actual material installation. An Apprentice is only productive if the Mechanic properly instructs and guides him. It is the Mechanic's responsibility to see that the Apprentice is utilized properly. If there is no Apprentice, the Mechanic assumes his duties.
Relationship to other Jobs
Mechanic can be promoted to Foreman after learning all roofing, leadership, and customer relation skills and has shown he can handle apprentices under his direction.
