Nope.
Construction laborers work in a physically demanding environment and are relied on to be able to jump in and help with a number of tasks.
Someone with extreme physical limitations like these would be more of a liability then an asset on the jobsite.

Yikes! Why would that even be an option if now they have limitations? Get some advice from the rehabilitation commission in your state. A new type of work is likely.

If they were in a specialized field such as an electrician, carpenter, or plumber, they probably would not have terrible issues, but I would not know.
