Laborer Jobs in Washington

A Laborer in the landscaping industry is responsible for the physical labor involved in landscaping work. Their duties typically include mowing lawns, trimming trees and shrubs, planting flowers, applying pesticides and fertilizers, and maintaining gardens. They may also be responsible for tasks such as installing sprinkler systems or laying sod.

There are no specific certifications required for a Landscaping Laborer, but having a Certified Landscape Technician (CLT) or a Certified Professional Horticulturist (CPH) accreditation could be advantageous. These certifications can demonstrate a higher level of knowledge and expertise in the landscaping field. Experience in a related field is beneficial.
