Job description
Job duties include the operation of various equipment specific to level, grade, and form land at the employer's worksite after the crops are out of the fields. This equipment includes tractors pulling grader boards, land planes, quad tracks, row tracks, scrapers, and laser controlled scrapers. After the crops have come out of the fields the employees will disk the field into a fine dust then start with a land plane and continue by using dirt scrapers to help transfer soil to make the land level on the specified fields. The land is considered to be level once a 1 degree slope on an entire field, which removes low places for water to sit and high places that water runs off, is achieved. Employees also use dirt scrapers to fill in erosions caused by years of running water across the field. Manual duties include but are not limited to maintenance and upkeep of land leveling equipment used daily in order to be able to accomplish these duties. Daily hours and duties may vary depending on weather and field conditions. The employer reserves the right to increase workers' pay or provide bonuses based on tenure, performance, or other factors that are solely based on the discretion of the employer.
