Most historic preservationists work in professional office settings, although some have offices at historic sites. They may be required to travel to inspect or gather information at historic sites and other locations. Most preservationists work a standard 40-hour week, but they may have to work evenings and weekends to attend public hearings with citizens' groups or meet with other professionals in the field.
