You must be physically fit, be able to work outdoors in all seasons and weather, have good common sense and good reactions.

Our shifts are generally 8 hours a day but flexibility is necessary. Our day starts at 7:00 am and ends at 8:00 pm 7 days a week. The average week is 40 hours, based on 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. You must be available for all shifts, including evenings, weekends and statutory holidays.

Compensation starts at $18.00/hour and will increase depending on experience and job performance.
