The employees in this position will assist the other full-time personnel throughout the factory (i.e., industrial mechanics). These workers manually move freight and other materials in a sugar factory environment. Also, these workers stack material and maintain a clean work environment. By “maintaining a clean work environment”, the employer means the workers maintain the equipment freight and materials storage areas so the equipment is protected while creating a safe work environment. Physically remove equipment, tools, materials, and other items to enable assignments to be started or completed by other personnel. Leaving these materials disorganized or in high-traffic areas would increase the risk of injury to all workers in the sugar factory environment.

Did you know that... most J-1 workers who work more than 40 hours a week

(and in some states, more than 8 hours a day), can get paid "time and a half?"
