Pay and Benefits

This position is covered by a collective bargaining agreement and the pay for this position is $15.61 per hour.

Medical, dental and vision benefits are provided in accordance with the collective bargaining agreement and may not be available for all positions.

Work Schedules

Per the collective bargaining agreement, work schedules are awarded based on seniority. New hires are awarded their initial shift based on operational need and must be able to accept any shift.

Work schedules are set, 5 days on, 2 days off. Shifts do not change unless there is an operational need.

Full-Time is 8 hours per shift. Based on operational need, you may need to report to work early and/or work beyond your scheduled end time.
