Responsibilities: list of duties (Typical Duties Include ...). Use - .
Requirements: maybe Minimum Qualifications.
Qualifications: maybe requested skills? Actually "Requested Skills" could be Skills section.
Benefits: there is a Benefits section describing benefits.
Pay: Salary Range.
Schedule: maybe mention temporary appointment anticipated to last 6 months, though may be extended or decreased due to business need. Also internal candidates may be considered as job rotation. Could be schedule? Not exactly schedule but duration. Could treat as Schedule? Might be better to include a section "Schedule" if posting states schedule info: "This position is a temporary appointment anticipated to last 6 months, though, may be extended or decreased due to business need." That's schedule/duration. So we can include Schedule section.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's extract substantive content:
- About the role / Your Role: "As a Food Service Coordinator, you’ll play a vital role in managing daily food operations within the correctional facility, ensuring meals are prepared safely, served on time, and meet nutritional standards. You’ll coordinate, instruct, and lead adults in custody (AICs) who participate in food service work programs, helping them gain valuable skills for the future."
- Responsibilities (Typical Duties Include): list items:
* Adults in Custody Work Crews: Coordinates, assigns, and supervises AIC work crews; enforces rules, procedures, and security; provides training and evaluates performance; maintains discipline and cleanliness; conducts searches for contraband; monitors timecards and work area conditions.
* Food Preparation/Service: Leads AICs in preparing and cooking meals per menus and recipes; operates commercial kitchen equipment; ensures proper portioning and quality; may assist with special diets and suggest menu changes; plans cooking schedules and minimizes food waste.
* Sanitation: Oversees AICs in maintaining kitchen cleanliness and hygiene; ensures proper food storage and equipment sanitation; manages dishwashing temperatures and supply rotation.
* Supply Requisition: Performs inventory checks; requests supplies; verifies deliveries; may assist with food ordering; directs unloading and storage of supplies.
* Recordkeeping: Maintains records on food prepared and served, leftover quantities, inventory, and AIC work hours.
* Additional note: "These positions are based in the food preparation areas of correctional facilities and require willingness to work in a secure institutional setting, including enforcing security protocols such as conducting area inspections and searches of AICs for contraband."
* Also: "You will be working in a correctional environment with strict security protocols, including searches of AICs and work areas for contraband, while maintaining order, discipline, and a secure, efficient food service operation."
We can combine these as list items.
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: "A High school diploma, GED certificate, or other proof of education completion at same or higher level AND one (1) year of experience in a commercial food service facility, full-service restaurant, or other food preparing type establishment; OR An associate's degree in Food Service Management, Foods and Hospitality Service, or a directly-related field. Must obtain a Food Handlers Permit within 30 days of hire. Temporary appointments do not have to meet the minimum qualifications for the position and are not eligible for benefits."
Also maybe "Requested Skills" as Skills section.
- Skills: list:
* Team/Crew management of up to 40 or more individuals
* Experience managing, supervising, and/or leading a kitchen (restaurant, school cafeteria, military dining, government or private food establishment, etc.)
* Demonstrated experience cooking a variety of foods (i.e. vegetables, desserts, breads (yeast and quick types) main entrees, etc.)
* Knowledge of progressive cooking to minimize food waste of cook-to-serve foods;
* Knowledge of food temperature safety zones;
* Knowledge to instruct work crews in proper procedures for maintaining a high degree of sanitation in the work area;

Also maybe "Food Handlers Permit" is requirement.
- Benefits: The Benefits section: "The salary range listed above is for non-PERS qualifying applicants. PERS qualifying applicants may be eligible for an adjusted range to reflect an additional 6.95%. The State of Oregon provides a generous benefit package, which includes: Family health, vision, and dental insurance Vacation, sick leave, and 11 paid holidays 21 days paid military leave for national guard and reserve components Optional short and long-term disability Term life insurance Fully paid retirement program Oregon Saving Growth Plan Flexible spending accounts for health and childcare And more"
We need to list as
- .
- Pay: Salary Range $5,233 - $6,271 (maybe per month?). We'll just put that.
- Schedule: "This position is a temporary appointment anticipated to last 6 months, though, may be extended or decreased due to business need. Internal candidates may be considered as a job rotation with their current manager's approval."
Also maybe mention working conditions? Could be part of Responsibilities or separate? Not required.
We must not include boilerplate like "Application Information", "Working Conditions", "About The Department", "About The Process – What To Expect", "Requirements For Employment", "Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (EDI&B)", etc. Those are to be removed.
We must preserve all substantive information; but we are allowed to drop sections like "Working Conditions" if they are not required headings? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." It says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. It does not say we must include all possible headings; we can choose to combine some info into existing sections. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to ensure we don't lose any substantive info. If we drop a heading like "Working Conditions", we must still include that info somewhere else (maybe in Responsibilities or a new section). But we can incorporate it into Responsibilities or a new section like "Working Conditions" if we want. However the instruction says we can prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine working conditions into Responsibilities or a new section like "Work Environment". But we need to keep the info.
Let's see what substantive info is in Working Conditions:
- These positions work inside an adult correctional facility and may encounter angry, hostile or abusive Adult in Custody (AIC), which could result in personal injury, death or becoming a hostage.
- You are responsible for handling AIC incidents in the immediate work area as well as preventing escapes by proper control of keys, tools, equipment, and other potential contraband.
- You are required to report and document unusual incidents.
- High noise level at all times, extreme variations in temperatures, stands and walks for long periods of time on concrete floors, and required to bend for searches.
- Employee deals with wet and slippery floors and with Adults in Custody daily.
We could incorporate these into Responsibilities or a separate "Work Environment" section. Since we already have Responsibilities covering duties, we could add a subsection? But we only allowed
- for lists. Could add a
paragraph after responsibilities.
Simplify: Keep Responsibilities as list of duties; then add a
for working conditions after the list.
Similarly, "About The Department" is substantive but maybe we can incorporate into a short
under "About the role" or separate "About the department". The instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine "About the role" and "About the department" into one section? But they'd be different headings. Might be okay to have both.
But we need to avoid boilerplate like EEO, etc. Those are to be removed.
We must also remove duplicated lines.
Let's decide on sections:
-
About the role
: include the paragraph about role and maybe also a brief about department? Could add a short paragraph about department after role.
- Responsibilities
: list of duties (including work crews, food prep, sanitation, supply, recordkeeping) plus maybe the additional notes about security protocols and work environment? Could incorporate work environment as separate after list.
-
Minimum Qualifications
: (or Requirements) include the qualifications and food handler permit note, plus note about temporary appointments not eligible for benefits.
- Skills
: list requested skills.
- Benefits
: list benefits.
- Pay
: salary range.
- Schedule
: temporary appointment duration note and internal candidate rotation.
We must not include headings with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have real content.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. We won't.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must not include application instructions (like "In the Work Experience section...").
We must not include EEO, etc.
Now produce HTML.
Let's craft.
First, maybe a short for metadata: "Initial Posting Date: 09/23/2026 | Application Deadline: 10/04/2026 | Agency: Department of Corrections | Position Type: Employee". Could be a short paragraph. The instruction says fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short p.
Now sections.
We'll output:
Initial Posting Date: 09/23/2026 | Application Deadline: 10/04/2026 | Agency: Department of Corrections | Position Type: Employee
