Talk:Construction foreman

Perspective
This article seems to be written with smaller jobs in mind - possibly from the perspective of the client. On large construction sites, there are many foremen, assistant foremen, working foremen, general foremen, etc on the same construction project. Unions typically spell it out in the collective bargaining agreements that certain rules be followed when hiring the workforce - those rules typically indicate a ratio that indicates how many journeyman can be hired on a site before an additional foreman is required - and how many before a general foreman or assistant foreman comes into play. A single foreman's role therefore does not become vital to the success of the project.

Depending on the job, union, and company policies - some foreman will work their trade alongside their crew, while others will merely supervise. The foreman duties beyond trade work includes those relating to safety, time and attendance, constructability, and union matters. --Yesurbius (talk) 22:17, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
