The National Occupational Analysis (NOA) has the following objectives: to describe and group the tasks performed by skilled workers; to identify which tasks are performed in every province and territory; to develop instruments for use in the preparation of interprovincial Red Seal examinations and curricula for training leading to the certification of skilled workers; to facilitate the mobility of apprentices and skilled workers in Canada; and, to supply employers, employees, associations, industries, training institutions and governments with analyses of occupations. This analysis covers tasks performed by ironworkers (reinforcing), defined as workers who cut, bend, lay out, place and weld reinforcing steel rods, welded wire fabric and composite materials in a wide variety of poured concrete products and structures such as buildings, highways, bridges, stadiums and towers.--Includes text from document.
