As a construction worker, you will be working outdoors in all types of weather. Some days the foreman may call off a job due to inclement weather, but other days you might have to work in it. The interviewer wants to know that you can work in poor conditions. They do not want to hire someone who will call off work if it is cold or rainy. Describe how you feel about working in these types of conditions, giving an example from the past. If you are not okay working in poor weather conditions, you will likely be passed over for the job.

"Yes, I am fine working in poor weather conditions and have done so in the past. I did my apprenticeship in Colorado and would work throughout the winter. I have worked in heavy rain, snow, and freezing conditions. I plan accordingly and wear the proper clothing to stay warm and dry."
