Job description

The essential work activity involves moving highly perishable agricultural crops (sugarcane, citrus, watermelon, mixed vegetables, and other agricultural commodities) directly from the fixed site agricultural properties of the association’s growers/members to the farm fields to the processing plant, the locations of which are detailed in the attached schedule. The haulers are required to complete each step of the haul as part of necessary field to processing facility activities for the harvest. Haulers must be physically and mentally healthy. Each worker is expected to operate hauling vehicles efficiently and safely through all types of routes. Haulers must be able to operate tractors, trailers, semi-trailers, and have adequate knowledge to make minor adjustments or repairs to these vehicles. Must have a CDL, or equivalent license, pass a required driver’s license background check, ad mandated drug/alcohol test. Haulers must have and maintain a suitable driving record and be insured by the employer’s insurance company. If involved in an auto accident which you are found to be at fault, you will be subject to termination.

Daily job assignments will be made by, and at the sole discretion of, the Company Farm Managers as the progression of the growing season dictates. Workers must perform the assigned work as described in ETA 790, and work at the assigned Company locations. Workers may not switch work at Company locations without specific authorization of the Farm manager. At the direction of the Farm Manager and/or Supervisor workers may be re-assigned to different farm locations within the company at various times of the workday and/or on different days.

The employer will provide the tools, equipment, materials, protective clothing, including gloves where required to perform all job specifications at no cost to the worker. The employer will charge the worker for reasonable costs related to the workers refusal or negligent failure to return the tools or due to such workers willful damage or destruction of the tools.
