Maintenance Clerk
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can put duties under Responsibilities as a list. For Skills, we might not have explicit skill list; better to omit Skills section if no explicit skill statements. Requirements/Qualifications also not present. So we will have sections: About the role (Position Summary), Responsibilities (Job Duties), Benefits, Schedule. Possibly also Requirements? Not present. We'll omit.
Now format: Use
for section headings. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the Position Summary text exactly (maybe as a paragraph). Then Responsibilities: list each duty as
- . Benefits: list each benefit as
- maybe. Schedule: include the sentence about open availability as a paragraph.
We must not include boilerplate like "California applicants: Please click here to review the Costco Applicant Privacy Notice." That's boilerplate/legal; remove. Also "The jobs listed are examples..." remove. Also "Job Description Posting Updated: July 2026 Job Code: 0508" maybe minor metadata; we can fold into a short
or drop. According to rule: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a short
at end with that metadata. But maybe better to drop it as it's minor. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information". Is that substantive? It's metadata about posting date and job code; could be considered minor. Might be okay to drop. Safer to include as a short
at the end. We must not include application instructions like "For additional information about pay ranges, click here." That's about pay; we are not including Pay section, but that sentence is about pay. Should we keep it? It's not substantive pay info; it's a link. Since we are not including Pay section, we could drop that sentence. It's not a duty/requirement/benefit. It's basically a pointer. Could drop. Also "Apart from any religious or disability considerations, open availability is needed to meet the needs of the business." That's schedule info; we keep. Also "If hired, you will be required to provide proof of authorization to work in the United States." That's a requirement (legal). Could be included in Requirements section? But we don't have a Requirements section; we could add a short paragraph under Responsibilities? Might be better to add a Requirements section with that line. However the rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. This is specific content: proof of authorization to work in US. That's a requirement. So we could add a Requirements section with that as a
or
- . Since it's a single item, we can use
. But we said we prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Adding a Requirements section for one line may be thin. Could we incorporate it into About the role? Probably not. Could we put it under Responsibilities? It's not a duty. Could we put it under Benefits? No. Could we drop it? It's substantive info about work authorization; removing would lose info. So better to include a short Requirements section with that line as a
. That's acceptable. Similarly, "Ability to operate vehicles, equipment or machinery." is a skill/duty; we already have duties list includes that? Actually the duties list includes "Ability to operate vehicles, equipment or machinery." as a separate bullet in the job duties. So we will include that as a duty bullet. Now let's extract duties list from the text: "Performs routine maintenance and repairs for warehouse and ancillary business machinery and equipment, such as forklifts, HVAC equipment, refrigeration units, ovens, scales, wrappers, compactor, baler, and dock plates." "Builds and repairs fixtures, structures, and displays using hand and power tools." "Measures, cuts, affixes, shapes, sands and paints various materials." "Repairs plumbing problems, installs and maintains plumbing fixtures." "Repairs electrical systems under 50 volts." "Participates in janitorial duties, cleans floors with the floor scrubbing machine, empties garbage, pulls cardboard, cleans office, break room and restrooms." "Follows departmental procedures and standards for cleanliness and performance of duties." "Cleans and maintains grounds and building, performs roof checks." "Participates in snow and ice removal." "Follows safety and security procedures, such as tagging and locking off power access when working on electrical equipment or contracting out electrical work, wearing safety goggles when using compactor and baler and product disposal." "Responds quickly to clean up spills." "Checks daily schedule for assigned tasks, construction, maintenance, and repair jobs." "Ensures proper cleanup and disposal of hazardous materials." "Ability to operate vehicles, equipment or machinery." "Assists with department duties as necessary." "Assists in other departments of the warehouse as necessary." We should keep each as separate
- . Some are long sentences; keep them. Now Benefits list: "We offer a comprehensive package of benefits including paid time off, health benefits - medical/dental/vision/hearing aid/pharmacy/behavioral health/employee assistance, health care reimbursement account, dependent care assistance plan, short-term disability and long-term disability insurance, AD&D insurance, life insurance, 401(k), stock purchase plan to eligible employees." We can split into list items: paid time off; health benefits - medical/dental/vision/hearing aid/pharmacy/behavioral health/employee assistance; health care reimbursement account; dependent care assistance plan; short-term disability insurance; long-term disability insurance; AD&D insurance; life insurance; 401(k); stock purchase plan (to eligible employees). We'll keep as
- each.
Schedule: "Apart from any religious or disability considerations, open availability is needed to meet the needs of the business." We'll put as
