Correctional Sergeant

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's parse content: - Advertisement Closes date: "Advertisement Closes 9/24/2026 (11:59 PM ET)" - this is metadata; we can put in a short

maybe. - Job ID 2604925 - minor metadata, drop. - Correctional Sergeant Pay Grade 11 Salary $43,046.16 Annually - Locality Premium – $5.23 per hour - Shift Premium - $2.13 per hour - Weekend Premium - $2.13 per hour - Holiday Premium - $2.13 per hour - Employment Type EXECUTIVE BRANCH | FULL TIME | ELIGIBLE FOR OVERTIME PAY | 18A | 40.0 HR/WK - Click here for more details on state employment.

This "Click here for more details on state employment." is like a navigation link; maybe drop. - Hiring Agency Justice & Public Safety Cabinet | Department of Juvenile Justice - Location 3475 Spurr Road Lexington, KY 40511 USA - Description paragraphs: multiple paragraphs about DJJ mission, etc. This is "About the role" maybe. - "This is a highly responsible position..." paragraph about expectations. - "Career growth and advancement are encouraged..." - "Please be advised that although medical cannabis..." paragraph about prohibition. - Responsibilities: list bullet points after "Responsibilities Include, But Are Not Limited To, The Following". We'll put under

Responsibilities

with

• ... - Additional Information: includes essential position, mandatory operations, overtime, shift, training academy, physical exam reimbursement, locality premium pay note, shift premium details, etc. This could go under Benefits, Pay, Schedule, Qualifications, Requirements. - Minimum Requirements: Education, Experience, Substitute etc. This is Requirements/Qualifications. - Special Requirements: age, driver's license, training academy within six months, maintain licensure. - Working Conditions: hazardous environment, exposure, etc. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section? Not in list; we could put under About the role or maybe under Requirements? Probably include in About the role. - Probationary Period: 6 months. - Contact info: Shaun Faulkner email and phone. This is minor metadata; could be a short

  . - "An Equal Opportunity Employer M/F/D" - boilerplate EEO; remove. We need to decide sections: - About the role: combine description paragraphs about DJJ mission, highly responsible position, career growth, medical cannabis note, working conditions, probationary period? Possibly. - Responsibilities: list. - Requirements: Minimum Requirements (education, experience, substitutes) plus Special Requirements (age, driver's license, training academy, licensure). Could combine. - Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements; but we need to avoid duplication. The instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covering education, experience, special requirements), Benefits/Pay/Schedule (if we have specifics). Let's see if we have Pay: Salary $43,046.16 annually, plus locality premium $5.23 per hour, shift premium $2.13 per hour, weekend premium $2.13 per hour, holiday premium $2.13 per hour. Also note about shift premium specifics: $2.13 between 3pm-11pm, $1.13 between 11:01pm-6:59am, weekends/holidays $2.13. That's pay details. - Benefits: maybe mention overtime eligibility, training academy provided, lodging and travel, physical exam reimbursement, locality premium not part of base pay, etc. Also mention eligibility for overtime pay. - Schedule: 40.0 HR/WK, full time, eligible for overtime, may be required to work overtime and any shift as needed. Thus we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Pay, Benefits, Schedule. Check if we have content for each: About the role: DJJ description, highly responsible position, career growth, medical cannabis note, working conditions, probationary period. Responsibilities: list. Requirements: education, experience, substitutes, special requirements (age, driver's license, training academy, licensure). Pay: salary, locality premium, shift premium details, weekend/holiday premium. Benefits: overtime eligibility, training academy (lodging/travel), physical exam reimbursement, maybe mention essential position, mandatory operations. Schedule: full time 40 hrs/wk, eligible for overtime, may work any shift as needed. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". We have specific numbers. Now produce HTML fragment. We need to use

  for section headings. Use

  • for lists. Use

    for prose. We must not include / or markdown. Let's craft. First, maybe a short

    for metadata like closing date and hiring agency location? The instruction says fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. So we can include a

    with "Advertisement closes: 9/24/2026 (11:59 PM ET). Hiring Agency: Justice & Public Safety Cabinet | Department of Juvenile Justice. Location: 3475 Spurr Road, Lexington, KY 40511." That's okay. Now sections. About the role: combine paragraphs. Let's write:

    The Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice is a multi-faceted agency that serves juveniles of the Commonwealth. While striving to hold youth accountable for their actions, the Department creates opportunities for sentenced, committed, probated, or detained youth to develop social and career skills that will equip them for re-entry into their communities as productive and responsible citizens.

May be exposed to hazards and dangers associated with operating a motor vehicle when providing transportation. This job has an initial and promotional probationary period of 6 months, except as provided in KRS 18A.111.

    That covers about the role. Responsibilities: list. We need to extract each bullet from "Responsibilities Include, But Are Not Limited To, The Following". Let's list: - Has functional supervision over and coordinates the work of employees or inmates for a specialized program or detail. - Performs custodial security functions. - Supervises and monitors activities of DJJ juveniles; assists juveniles in interpersonal skill development. - Supervises Correctional Officers. - Completes evaluations and approves time and attendance. - Maintains shift logs on juvenile's activities and notifies supervisors of issues; completes incident reports as needed; assists juveniles in complaint procedures. - Provides support services for routine maintenance, etc.; checks premises and ensures the safety of juveniles; attends staff meetings, case conferences and trainings. - Assists in group counseling sessions and assignments. - Transports juveniles to off campus outings, appointments, etc. - Requires to be able to exert physical effort in the proper restraint of residents based on behavior. - May perform other physical efforts in assisting youth with recreational and work related projects.

  • . Requirements: education, experience, substitutes, special requirements. Let's craft a paragraph summarizing.

    We could combine into
    but it's okay to use

    with bold. But we need to use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For requirements, we could make a list. Let's do
      • for each requirement item. Thus:

        Requirements

        • Education: High school graduate.
