Class code 2802 — Carpentry — Manufactured Products/Millwork Shop

This classification covers shop production of millwork, trusses, cabinetry, and similar wood products manufactured for later installation elsewhere, rather than on-site carpentry work. It applies to facilities running saws, planers, routers, and assembly lines to turn raw lumber into finished building components.

Payroll typically includes machine operators running table saws and molders, assemblers gluing and fastening pieces together, finishers sanding and applying coatings, and yard staff handling raw and finished lumber. Production is often organized in batches tied to construction project orders.

The leading injury exposures are contact with blades and cutting tools, kickback from saws, and repetitive strain from lifting lumber and assembled units. Dust exposure from sanding and cutting is also a consideration, making machine guarding, push sticks, and dust collection systems important safety controls.
