We have description, summary, key responsibilities, education and experience, physical requirements, working conditions, benefits. We need to map to headings.
We should not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove navigation etc.
We need to preserve all substantive info. So we need to include sections: About the role (maybe description/summary), Responsibilities (key responsibilities), Requirements (education and experience + maybe physical requirements?), Qualifications (maybe education/experience?), Skills (maybe Microsoft Office, etc.), Benefits (benefits), Pay (compensation range), Schedule (maybe working hours? The posting mentions must be available Monday-Friday regular hours, occasional weekend duties. That's schedule info). So we can include Schedule section.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual pay range: $75,000 - $85,000 / year. So Pay section.
Schedule: mention Monday-Friday regular working hours, occasional weekend duties. Also travel up to 75% of the time. That's schedule/travel.

We need to decide which headings to use.
Possible sections:
- About the role (description + summary)
- Responsibilities (key responsibilities)
- Requirements (education and experience + maybe physical requirements? but physical requirements could be under Requirements or maybe Qualifications? Usually physical requirements are separate but we don't have a heading for that. Could put under Requirements or Qualifications. Since we have Qualifications heading, we could put education/experience there. But we also have Requirements heading. Let's decide: Use Requirements for education/experience and physical requirements? Or separate: Requirements for education/experience, Qualifications for skills/preferred, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
But we have Skills heading; we could put Microsoft Office, etc. under Skills.
Qualifications could be preferred qualifications (seafood experience, bilingual). Or we could combine.
Let's map:
About the role: description + summary.
Responsibilities: key responsibilities bullet list.
Requirements: education and experience (required) + physical requirements? Might be too much but okay.
Qualifications: preferred qualifications (seafood/protein work experience, bilingual).
Skills: Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Teams) maybe also communication, problem-solving etc. But we have only that explicit.
Benefits: benefits list.
Pay: compensation range.

We must not create sections with filler. All have content.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points from responsibilities, education/experience, physical requirements, working conditions, benefits.
We must not repeat job title. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, etc. Also remove "Product purchase program" maybe part of benefits? It's listed under Benefits: "Product purchase program". Keep that.
We must remove "Pacific Seafood is an equal opportunity employer..." etc.

Schedule: Must be available to work Monday–Friday during regular working hours, with occasional weekend duties. Also travel up to 75% of the time (but that's also in requirements). We'll include schedule: Monday-Friday regular hours, occasional weekend duties.
Now we need to decide which sections to include.
We have About the role (description+summary). We'll put that in
.
Responsibilities:
- ... each duty.
Requirements: maybe combine education/experience and physical requirements? But physical requirements could be under Requirements as well. However we also have Schedule separate. Let's put Requirements: education/experience + physical requirements (maybe). But we also have Qualifications for preferred.
Skills: Microsoft Office Suite.
Benefits: list.
Pay: compensation.
Schedule: working hours.
We must avoid duplication: travel up to 75% appears both in requirements and schedule; we can mention in schedule only, but we need to preserve all info. If we put travel in schedule, we still need to keep it somewhere; we can keep it in schedule and not duplicate in requirements. But we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep it in schedule and not repeat elsewhere. However the requirements also list travel up to 75% as a requirement; if we omit it from requirements, we lose that info. But we could keep it in requirements and not duplicate in schedule; schedule can just mention Monday-Friday regular hours, occasional weekend duties. The travel is not strictly schedule but maybe considered requirement. The schedule section could include both working hours and travel. Let's include travel in schedule as well, but we need to avoid duplication. We could keep travel only in schedule and not in requirements; but then we lose the explicit requirement statement. However the requirement is also a condition; but we could argue it's covered by schedule. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we remove the travel requirement from requirements, we are summarizing away detail (the requirement). So we need to keep it somewhere. We could keep it in requirements and also mention in schedule but that would be duplication. Duplication is not prohibited explicitly, but they said remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicate lines. So we need to decide where to place travel info without duplication. Perhaps we can keep travel info under Requirements (as it's a requirement) and not include it in Schedule; schedule then just mentions Monday-Friday regular hours, occasional weekend duties. That preserves the travel requirement (in Requirements) and schedule info (hours). That seems okay.
Thus Schedule section
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points from responsibilities, education/experience, physical requirements, working conditions, benefits. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID.
