We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Primary Purpose" which is like about the role. Then "Essential Duties and Responsibilities" with subcategories: Safety Leadership, Risk Management, Insurance & Claims Management, Workers' Compensation Management, Insurance, Contract & Audit Administration, Compliance & Regulatory Affairs, Emergency Preparedness & Business Continuity, Leadership & Management. Those could be grouped under Responsibilities. Then "Minimal Qualifications" includes Education, Certification/License, Work Experience, Knowledge/Skills/Abilities. Then "Preferred Job Requirements" includes similar but more specific. Then "Compensation" includes salary range and variable compensation. Then "Physical Requirements and Working Conditions". We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (Primary Purpose). Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities). Qualifications (Minimal Qualifications). Skills (Knowledge/Skills/Abilities). Benefits? Not mentioned. Pay (Compensation). Schedule? Not mentioned. So we include About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Pay. Possibly also "Physical Requirements" could be part of Qualifications? But we can include as separate section? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples; we can use those. We should not create sections without real content. So we need About the role (Primary Purpose). Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities). Qualifications (Minimal Qualifications). Skills (Knowledge/Skills/Abilities). Pay (Compensation). Possibly also "Physical Requirements" could be under Qualifications? But they didn't list Physical Requirements as a standard heading; but we could include as a separate section if we think it's substantive. However they gave examples but not limited to those; we can add other headings if needed. But better to stick to given list. Physical Requirements could be part of Qualifications or maybe we omit if not fitting. But we have to preserve all substantive information; we cannot drop Physical Requirements. So we need to include it somewhere. Could add a section "Working Conditions" or "Physical Requirements". Since not in examples, but we can still include if needed. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., not exclusive. So we can add other headings as needed. We'll include a section "Physical Requirements". Also maybe "Preferred Job Requirements" could be merged into Qualifications/Skills. But we need to preserve all info; we can include Preferred Job Requirements under Qualifications or Skills. Better to have Qualifications (Minimal) and Preferred Qualifications? But they didn't list Preferred as a heading. Could add "Preferred Qualifications". However to keep sections few, we could combine Minimal and Preferred into Qualifications and Skills sections, but we must preserve details. We can include both Minimal and Preferred under Qualifications (with subheadings maybe using

or

    ). But the instruction: use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So we can have nested lists. We need to avoid repeating job title. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We must not include application instructions. Now craft HTML. Structure:
