FAQs
Are boilermakers in demand in Australia?
Yes. The local fabrication & welding sector is experiencing a short supply of experienced workshop fabricators and welders. This is largely due to the very high demand from the mining sector. So not only is there a shortage locally, but many boilermakers lack workshop experience having only worked in mining operations, shutdowns or construction.
What qualifications do boilermakers need?
Depending on the type of work required, a boilermaker may need some of the following tickets and experience:
- White Card (depending on job site)
- EWP Ticket
- Dogging and Rigging Ticket
- Confined Space
- Fire Sentry
- Forklift Ticket
