Job description

Highwork Limited based in 2703 White Street, Val Caron, ON P3N 0A7 is inviting applications from suitable candidates for the position of Draftsperson who are self-motivated and have good interpersonal skills. Highwork Limited specialises in the design, supply, installation, certification, training, and commissioning of passive and active engineered fall protection systems, as well as post-fall rescue and recovery. Highwork has the infrastructure needed to assist in the resolution of all types of fall hazards, including in-house engineering, fabrication, dedicated installation crews, and decades of experience. We have a strong desire to do things correctly.

Nothing should be left to chance when it comes to fall protection. Unacceptable is supposition. That is why our mission statement of “Predictable Results in a Time of Crisis” serves as the guiding philosophy in everything we do. Highwork Limited’s solutions have been used in every industry and by people from all walks of life. We communicate with customers. We pay attention to their requirements. Throughout the design, engineering, and installation processes, we work together. We are mentors and educators.

We learn from our customers. Our portfolio includes projects ranging from the deepest depths of the earth to the top of the CN Tower and everything in between. Highwork created the Guardwalk system as a passive fall protection system. Not to be confused with temporary kits, the Guardwalk system meets Canadian Building Code requirements, and each installation comes with a P.Eng. sealed drawing. The candidate who got selected will be required to start work as soon as possible. The vacancies refer to Permanent employment or Full time job.
