One after the other for long hours, they take on they heads these dishes full of concrete, about 20 Kgs each time!
I am told these workers make about 170 rupees a day ....which is between 2 and 3 US$. Seems they get more when going to Kerala (ie around 8 US$ a day) . Will check this next time i see them..

Billy Huddler, a labor foreman from Puyallup, pulls the crane cable lower so he can secure it to a 3,000 pound concrete panel.
The busiest construction weekend yet saw crews tackle installation of girders and concrete deck panels at four overpasses along the State Route 520 corridor from Feb. 24-27, 2012. All lanes of the highway were closed so crews could move more than 4 million pounds of massive concrete girders for new lidded overpasses above the highway at Bellevue Way Northeast and 84th Avenue Northeast. Concrete deck panels were installed at Evergreen Point Road and 92nd Avenue Northeast during a chilly weekend that saw heavy rain, hailstorms and plummeting temperatures.

***EXCLUSIVE*** DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES:
Burj Dubai Boulevard and Sheikh Zayed Road, Burj Dubai Metro Station also visible ( the yellow shape building on the middle right of the pic).
Incredible never-before-seen pictures show how the new world's tallest building is still unfinished just three days before it's official unveiling. The jaw-dropping Burj Dubai is a mega structure its makers hoped would show off Dubai's new wealth and industrial might. Cash-strapped developers will finally end a six-year slog to put up the colossal building with a glitzy ceremony on Monday January 4, 2010. But these images show the half-completed mess hidden inside it's towering walls as the city's big day looms. Photographs taken on New Years Eve show a ramshackle of bare concrete walls, piles of unused materials and exposed pipes. Construction workers are also visible racing to make finishing touches. Thousands are said to have been rushed in over the weekend before the inauguration in a desperate push to complete the job.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Europe District recently began renovating a World War II-era converted fire station in Comrat, Moldova. The project seeks to update all living and sleeping accomodations, modernize the communication room, and add five new fire truck garages, as well as an Emergency Operations Center. The EOC and fire station will provide rescue and emergency operation services for roughly 35,000 people in 12 surrounding villages. When complete in late 2010, the facility will also serve as the emergency headquarters for capital, Chisinau, located 64 miles north. (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers photo by Carol E. Davis)
"There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot.. a time to tear down and a time to build....What do workers gain from their toil?" (Ecclesiastes 3)
This Mughals' era building is being put down, stone after stone, by a barehand worker.....
What do workers gain from their toil?.....
