Job Description

The Current Landscape: What We Know Labor and Union Policies The Trump administration’s approach to labor relations has historically leaned toward pro-business stances. This includes potential changes in:National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Policies:The NLRB’s leadership is expected to reflect pro-business views, which may lead to changes in labor laws and union rights (Source).These changes could affect unionized land surveyors, particularly those employed by larger firms or in the public sector.Fact: According to the NLRB annual report, there was a 15% decrease in union-led negotiations in 2024 compared to 2016, reflecting a broader trend of diminishing union influence.Union Influence:Despite outreach to union workers during campaigns, policies might aim to limit union power. This includes rolling back regulations supporting collective bargaining (Source).Fact: Membership in trade unions dropped by 8% during the last administration, with union members comprising only 10.3% of the workforce in 2024 (Source).Regulatory Adjustments One of the administration’s hallmarks has been deregulation, which could extend to professional licensing and environmental policies:Licensing Standards:Deregulatory efforts may prompt states to revise licensing requirements. While this could simplify entry into the profession, it might also raise concerns about maintaining high standards.Fact: In 2023, 60% of states reviewed their licensing requirements in light of federal recommendations to reduce occupational licensing barriers.Environmental Policy:Changes to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations could influence land use and surveying practices (Source).Fact: The EPA reported a 40% reduction in regulatory filings related to environmental assessments from 2018 to 2024.Union Membership Trends (2016-2024)Potential Impacts on Land Surveyors 1. Licensing Standards Land surveyors may see adjustments in state-level licensing due to federal deregulation trends. These changes could:Simplify Licensing Processes: Making it easier for new entrants to join the profession.Data Point: A survey by the National Conference of State Legislatures in 2023 found that 45% of states adopted more lenient licensing requirements for technical professions, including surveying.Create Variability: Lead to inconsistent standards across states, potentially complicating interstate work.2. Union Representation For unionized surveyors, changes could impact:Collective Bargaining Rights:Reduced union influence might weaken workers’ ability to negotiate wages and benefits.Chart Idea: A bar graph comparing the number of unionized surveyors from 2016 to 2024, highlighting trends across states.Job Security:Altered labor laws could affect protections for union members.3. Workload and Opportunities Deregulation in environmental policies might:Expand Opportunities: Streamline processes for land development projects, increasing demand for surveyors.Data Point: A report from the American Planning Association in 2024 estimated a 25% increase in expedited land development projects.Raise Ethical Concerns: Require vigilance to ensure projects meet ethical and environmental standards despite fewer regulations.How Land Surveyors Can Prepare 1. Stay Informed Knowledge is power. Land surveyors should:Monitor Policy Changes:Follow updates from professional associations like the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS).Engage in Advocacy:Participate in discussions to ensure surveyors’ voices are heard in policy-making.2. Enhance Professional Skills Staying competitive requires continual learning:Pursue Continuing Education:Take courses that address evolving industry standards and technologies.Fact: Surveyors who completed advanced GIS training reported a 20% increase in job offers within six months.Embrace Technology:Learn to use advanced tools like GIS software and drones.3. Strengthen Networks A robust professional network can provide support and opportunities:Join Communities:Engage with platforms like Land Surveyors United to connect with peers.Collaborate with Unions:Even in challenging times, unions can offer valuable resources and support.4. Advocate for the Profession Promoting the importance of land surveying helps:Educate the Public:Highlight the critical role of surveyors in development and infrastructure projects.Chart Idea: A pie chart showing the contribution of surveyors to major U.S. infrastructure projects.Influence Policy:Work with industry groups to advocate for fair regulations.Federal Infrastructure Spending (2016-2024)Hope and Opportunity While change can be daunting, it also brings opportunities: 1. Emerging MarketsInfrastructure Projects:Potential deregulation may accelerate projects requiring surveyors’ expertise.Data Point: Federal infrastructure spending increased by 18% in 2023 compared to 2019.Renewable Energy:Surveyors can contribute to sustainable projects like solar farms and wind energy installations.2. Innovation in Practice Technological advancements can:Boost Efficiency:Tools like LiDAR and 3D mapping enhance precision and reduce workloads.Chart Idea: A line graph tracking the adoption rate of LiDAR technology in surveying from 2015 to 2024.Expand Services:Offering innovative solutions can attract diverse clients.3. Leadership Roles Surveyors who adapt quickly can:Lead the Charge:Become advocates for the profession in policy discussions.Set Standards:Help establish best practices in a shifting landscape.Adoption of LiDAR Technology in Surveying (2016-2024)Resources for Land Surveyors To stay ahead, leverage these resources:Professional Associations:NSPS – Advocacy, education, and networking.American Association for Geodetic Surveying (AAGS) – Technical resources and certification.Education Platforms:L.E.A.R.N. Program – Continuing education tailored for surveyors.Community Platforms:Land Surveyors United – Forums, tools, and peer support.LinkedIn Groups – Networking opportunities.Government Resources:U.S. Department of Labor – Updates on labor policies.EPA – Environmental regulation changes.Conclusion The Trump administration’s policy changes present both challenges and opportunities for land surveyors. By staying informed, enhancing skills, and advocating for the profession, surveyors can navigate these changes effectively. Embracing innovation and leveraging resources will position the community for long-term success. Together, land surveyors can not only adapt to this evolving landscape but also lead the way in shaping the future of the profession. With preparation, collaboration, and resilience, the surveying community can look ahead with hope and confidence.Over to You! >>> Find more and create a "Seeking Employment" profile: The following curated scenarios illustrate that questionable practices in surveying often stem from attempts to save time or reduce workload. Yet, in the high-precision field of land surveying, such shortcuts rarely pay off. The impacts resonate beyond the immediate project, influencing reputations, future job prospects, and even entire professional networks. In an industry where meticulous detail and credibility are invaluable, surveyors must remember that every decision today can affect their standing tomorrow. But before we begin, here is a deep dive audio podcast about the subject at hand.Wrapping Angles History and Reasoning Wrapping angles is a technique that dates back to the use of repeating theodolites. The purpose was to distribute potential errors across multiple readings, reducing the impact of human error in manually reading scales. The practice involved carrying the lower scale to the backsight, spreading out errors by making several observations, which was necessary before the advent of modern total stations.Real-World

Qualifications and Experience:

  • From the years of experience, it is a proven fact that even the most experienced electricians/ fitters require extensive training as the variety of equipment is quite extensive and we, therefore, are looking for “go-getters” who is keen to learn and grow with the company.

  • To inspection and test components and parts for correct operation.
