What this job is
A wool handler, also called a shearing shed hand, works in a shearing shed during shearing. They keep sheep moving from the pens to the shearers, pick up each fleece as it comes off the sheep and spread it on the skirting table, and keep the shearing board clean. Wool handlers also help skirt and roll fleeces, press the wool into bales and brand the bales, so the clip is ready for the wool classer and for sale.
