Hardwood lumber graders determine the quality of hardwood boards. The work is carried out in two types of work environments, namely, in sawmills and manufacturing businesses. In sawmills, the lumber is graded after it has been sawed into logs. In manufacturing businesses, graders check the quality of the wood received before it is processed. Manufacturing businesses that employ hardwood lumber graders make hardwood flooring, moulds, wood doors or furniture.
