Insulation workers find work in shipbuilding industries
Insulation workers held about 61,000 jobs in 2004. The construction industry employed 4 out of 5 workers; most worked for building finishing contractors.
Small numbers of insulation workers held jobs in the Federal Government, in wholesale trade, and in shipbuilding and other manufacturing industries that have a history of working with asbestos materials.
In less populated areas, carpenters, heating and air-conditioning installers or drywall installers may do insulation work.
