Per Diem - Social Worker
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role, Qualifications, Responsibilities, Pay. Possibly Skills? There's competencies list but could be part of Qualifications or Skills. The posting includes "Competencies Satisfactorily complete competency requirements for this position." Not detailed. Might ignore.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. There's none.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Pay is stated: "Compensation Pay Rate $32.00". So we need Pay section.
Schedule not mentioned, so omit.
Benefits not mentioned, omit.
Skills: maybe we can include a Skills section derived from qualifications like "Ability to manage multiple priorities..." etc. But we need to decide if we should create Skills section. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine qualifications and skills into Qualifications. But we have a Qualifications section already with many items; we could also have Skills separate if there are distinct skill statements. However many of the qualifications are skills. Might be okay to have just Qualifications and Responsibilities and About the role and Pay.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Qualifications we need a list. For Responsibilities we need a list (maybe combine all responsibilities into one list). For About the role we use
. For Pay we can use
with the pay rate.
We must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include all qualification statements, all responsibility statements, all competency statements? The "Competencies Satisfactorily complete competency requirements for this position." is vague; maybe we can ignore as it's not substantive detail. But it's a statement; maybe we should include as a
under Qualifications? It says "Satisfactorily complete competency requirements for this position." That's a requirement but vague. Could include as a list item.
Also there is "Ability to travel to off-site locations" etc. Those are qualifications.
We need to parse the text.
Let's extract sections:

Also there is a note about drug testing etc. That's not pay/benefits; it's a condition. Could be included in a separate section? Not required. Might be included as a note under Pay or as a separate paragraph. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The drug testing statement is not boilerplate; it's a condition of employment. Should we keep? It's substantive. Could be placed under a section like "Requirements" maybe. But we don't have a Requirements section heading; we could use "Requirements" for such items like drug testing, background check. However the instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could have a Requirements section for drug testing and background check. But we already have Qualifications covering many items. The drug testing and background check could be placed under Requirements.
Let's see: "This position requires consent to drug and/or alcohol testing after a conditional offer of employment is made, as well as on-going compliance with the Drug-Free Workplace Policy. All Chapters Health System employees performing services for Florida affiliates are submitted through the Florida Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse to verify eligibility after a conditional offer of employment is made as well as ongoing eligibility. For more information, please visit https://info.flclearinghouse.com/."
That's substantive. We'll include in Requirements section as a list.

We must not create Skills unless we have specific skill statements not already in Qualifications.
