MASON AND PLASTERER (Code 51660)

A combined trades title. The holder lays and repairs brick, block and stone, and also finishes and patches plaster — two crafts joined into one position because a State facility rarely has enough of either to justify separate staff.

Skill is demonstrated through trade experience and a competitive examination rather than through a State licence, since neither craft is licensed in New Jersey.
