Mount materials or workpieces onto production equipment.

Detailed work activity

Mount materials or workpieces onto production equipment. is a detailed work activity in O*NET — a concrete unit of work shared across 36 occupations and seen in 40 occupation-specific tasks. It rolls up into the broader work activity Position workpieces or materials on equipment. in Handling and Moving Objects .

Detailed work activities are the most granular shared layer in O*NET's work-activity hierarchy (Generalized → Intermediate → Detailed → occupation-specific task). The figures below describe how this activity shows up across the economy and what independent studies measure about AI and this kind of work — not a prediction that the work will be automated.

AI exposure

Of the 40 tasks under this activity that the OpenAI / Eloundou “GPTs are GPTs” study rated, 1 (3%) are flagged as directly exposed to language models (E1) or exposed via model-powered tools (E2).

Exposure estimates overlap with model capabilities — whether a model could speed the task up — not whether the work will be done by software. Observed AI use is augmentation and assistance today, not jobs replaced.

Member tasks

Occupation-specific tasks O*NET maps to this detailed work activity, most important first.

Occupations that perform this

Exposure quadrant: AI task-overlap percentile vs Median pay AI task-overlap (horizontal) versus median pay (vertical), each as a percentile across all scored occupations, for 36 occupations in occupations that perform Mount materials or workpieces onto production equipment.. Overlap measures shared tasks with AI, not automation. Lower overlap · higher pay Higher overlap · higher pay Higher overlap · lower pay Lower overlap · lower pay Tire Builders Structural Metal Fabricators and Fitters Textile Winding, Twisting, and Drawing Out Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders Laundry and Dry-Cleaning Workers Grinding and Polishing Workers, Hand Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic Print Binding and Finishing Workers Heat Treating Equipment Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic Tool and Die Makers Gem and Diamond Workers Photographic Process Workers and Processing Machine Operators AI task-overlap percentile → ↑ Median pay
