Community Health Worker - 24 Hours/Week - Days
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role (intro), Job Summary (maybe under About the role? but we can have Job Summary as a paragraph under About the role? But they said use those headings for sections. We can include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Education, Experience, License/Certifications, Skills/Knowledge/Abilities, Physical Requirements, Job Hazards under Requirements? Or separate Qualifications, Skills? The list includes Qualifications, Skills as possible headings. We could split: Requirements (Education, Experience, License/Certifications), Skills (Skills/Knowledge/Abilities), Physical Requirements (maybe under Requirements?), Job Hazards maybe under Requirements? But we need to preserve all substantive info. Let's decide sections:
- About the role: includes the "Why work for..." paragraph and maybe the organizational description? Could be separate "About Methodist" but not in list. Could put under About the role.
- Job Summary: includes location, address, work schedule (but schedule also separate). Could include location and summary.
- Responsibilities: list of essential functions.
- Requirements: Education, Experience, License/Certifications.
- Skills: Skills/Knowledge/Abilities.
- Physical Requirements: Physical Weight Demands, Physical Activity, Job Hazards.
- Schedule: Work schedule.
We should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, navigation, cookie, legal, etc. At end there is EEO statement; remove.
Also remove duplicated lines: schedule appears twice; we will keep once.
Now produce HTML fragment.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
Let's craft.

Schedule: we already included schedule in Job Summary; but we could still have a Schedule section. However to avoid duplication, we could keep schedule only in Job Summary and not create separate Schedule section. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Schedule is present; we could have a Schedule section with the schedule details. But we already placed schedule in Job Summary. To avoid duplication, maybe better to have Schedule section and remove from Job Summary. Let's decide: The Job Summary should contain location and summary; schedule can be its own section. Let's adjust.
Job Summary: location and summary (excluding schedule). Schedule: separate section.
