Patient Transporter (SH) - FT - Days

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes Job Summary, Essential Functions & Responsibilities, Qualifications, Required Physical Requirements, Mental Requirements, Environmental Requirements and Exposure Hazards, Compensation Pay Range. We need to use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should map content accordingly. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO statement, etc. Also remove navigation/legal etc. The posting includes MWHC will not discriminate... that's EEO boilerplate; we should remove it. Also "We are also committed to equitable and transparent compensation practices..." maybe keep? It's about compensation practices but not specific pay range; we already have pay range. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's about compensation practices, not specific. Probably safe to remove as it's generic. Also "It is the policy..." is accommodation statement; remove. We need to preserve all substantive information. We need sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can have: - About the role (maybe from Job Summary) - Responsibilities (Essential Functions & Responsibilities) - Qualifications (Qualifications) - Requirements (maybe combine Physical, Mental, Environmental? Could be separate sections: Physical Requirements, Mental Requirements, Environmental Requirements. But we need to decide based on rule: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine into a "Requirements" section with subpoints? But we must use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could have a

  Requirements

  then a
  with items covering physical, mental, environmental. That seems okay. - Pay (Compensation Pay Range) We should not include Benefits or Schedule unless present. Not present. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content. Job Summary paragraph: "Start the day excited to make a difference…end the day knowing you did. Come join our team.
