*Essential Communication Functions: The role requires the ability to receive, understand, and respond to safety-critical instructions in dynamic, high-risk environments. Crew members must communicate effectively with supervisors and coworkers while working around heavy equipment, elevated structures, rigging, and rapidly changing conditions. Communication may occur through spoken English, written English, ASL, text-based systems, visual cues, or other reasonable accommodations.
