Three to six months experience operating any one of the following: tractor, skid loader, plows/trencher. OT as needed.
We want to clarify the information on Item F.a.5. During the work week, which runs Sunday through Saturday, employees are scheduled to work a 40 hour work week and given OT as needed. F.a.5 does not allow us to enter such a work schedule. If we enter 8 hours each day, it would show 56 hours a week, which is not an accurate reflection of their work schedule.
