In a blue-collar community where the high stress of working in a refinery is balanced by the comedic high-wire antics of its plant workers, The Trades centres around pipefitter Todd and his sister and roommate, Audrey, who follows in her big brother’s footsteps pursuing a career in the trades as a carpenter, just like their father Rod.
Todd works overtime to get a new robotic welding arm up and running to improve the refinery’s productivity. Audrey debates joining the “family business.” And an incident at work opens a job in management, reigniting Todd’s leadership aspirations.
