Construction worker (Constructor) is a manual labourer employed in the physical construction of the built environment and its infrastructure.

Construction workers may also colloquially be referred to as "hard hat workers" or "hard hats", as they often wear hardhats for safety.

The term construction worker is a broad and generic term and most construction workers are primarily described by the level and type of work they perform. Labourers carry out a wide range of practical tasks to help tradespersons on construction sites. Labourers clean the construction site on a regular basis. They use tools such as rakes, shovels, and wheelbarrows to remove rubble, scraps of metal, and wood or they might also need to sweep out certain areas, and get building supplies in order.
