Candidates should be comfortable working in physically demanding outdoor environments where they may encounter ash, smoke residue, burned structures, debris, dust, and potentially hazardous materials.
This is not a wildland firefighting position. The primary focus will be post-fire cleanup, debris removal, environmental remediation, and recovery work.
  • Assist with wildfire debris removal and cleanup
  • Remove burned and damaged construction materials from affected properties
  • Load, unload, move, and stage debris and cleanup materials
  • Perform general site cleanup and environmental remediation support

  • Assist with demolition and removal of damaged materials when required
  • Follow established procedures when working around potentially hazardous materials
  • Properly wear and maintain required PPE and respiratory protection
  • Follow HAZWOPER procedures, site-specific safety plans, and supervisor instructions
  • Maintain safe work areas around equipment, vehicles, debris piles, and active cleanup operations
  • Work effectively as part of a fast-paced disaster recovery team
  • Follow all OSHA, environmental, and project-specific safety requirements

Requirements
  • Current HAZWOPER certification required
  • 40-Hour HAZWOPER certification strongly preferred
  • Current 8-Hour HAZWOPER Refresher, when applicable
  • Previous construction, demolition, environmental cleanup, restoration, remediation, or general labor experience preferred
  • Ability to perform physically demanding work for extended periods
  • Ability to lift and carry 50+ lbs
  • Comfortable working outdoors for extended shifts
  • Comfortable working around ash, dust, smoke residue, debris, and fire-damaged structures
  • Ability to wear respiratory protection and other required PPE
  • Must be able to follow strict safety procedures and supervisor instructions
  • Must be dependable and report to work on time
  • Must have reliable transportation to designated Spokane-area jobsites
  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States
    Preferred Experience
    • Candidates with previous experience in any of the following are strongly encouraged to apply:
    • Wildfire or disaster cleanup
    • Environmental remediation
    • Hazardous material cleanup
    • Fire or flood restoration
    • Demolition
    • Construction labor
    • Debris removal
    • Asbestos or lead-related remediation
    • Emergency response cleanup
    • Disaster recovery projects

Benefits
Work Environment
This position involves working in areas affected by wildfire damage. Conditions may include:
  • Burned or damaged structures
  • Ash and airborne dust
  • Smoke residue and soot
  • Uneven terrain
  • Heavy debris
  • Hot weather and direct sunlight
  • Extended periods of standing, walking, bending, lifting, and carrying
  • Use of respirators, protective suits, gloves, safety glasses, hard hats, and other PPE

Workers will be expected to strictly follow all established site safety, respiratory protection, HAZWOPER, and environmental procedures.
