Plumber
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have schedule: "Mon-Friday 8am to 4:30pm". So we can have Schedule section. Pay: salary per hour $46.48. Benefits: mention comprehensive employee benefits program, link to BNL Benefits Program. Could include Benefits section. About the role: maybe combine Organization Overview and Position Description? Could be "About the role". Responsibilities: Essential Duties And Responsibilities. Requirements: maybe Required Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities plus Environmental Health And Safety Requirements? Could split into Requirements (education/experience/certifications) and Qualifications (maybe same). But we have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what to put where. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those as appropriate. We must not create sections with filler. So we need to map content.
We have:
- Organization Overview: description of division. Could go under About the role.
- Position Description: brief description of role. Could also be About the role.
- Essential Duties And Responsibilities: list of duties -> Responsibilities.
- Required Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: includes education/experience, certifications, knowledge areas, driver's license. Could be Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications (knowledge/skills) and Skills (maybe specific skills). But we have separate headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to avoid duplication. Perhaps:
- Requirements: education/experience, certifications, driver's license.
- Qualifications: knowledge of commercial/industrial plumbing systems, fire sprinkler systems, troubleshooting techniques, safety practices, testing methods.
- Skills: maybe ability to use tools, brazing, soldering, etc? But those are in duties. Could also put under Skills: ability to read drawings, use computers, etc. However we have many skill-like items in duties. Might be better to combine knowledge and skills under Qualifications and Skills as appropriate.
But we must not invent filler. We need to ensure each heading has real specific content.
Let's extract specifics:
Education/Experience:
- High School Diploma or GED.
- 6-yrs total experience composed of 4-yrs apprenticeship plus 2-yrs experience, or 6-8 yrs total experience composed of formal trade school plus minimum 2-yrs experience, or 8-yrs experience (no formal training).
- Obtain Backflow Tester Certification with the first 6 months of employment.
- Must have a valid NYS Driver’s license.
That's Requirements.
Knowledge (Qualifications):
- Knowledge of commercial and industrial plumbing systems, including piping, valves, fittings, fixtures, and associated components.
- Knowledge of plumbing installation, maintenance, and repair practices, including proper methods, materials, tools, and equipment.
- Knowledge of fire sprinkler and fire protection systems, including wet and dry piping systems.
- Knowledge of troubleshooting techniques used to identify and correct plumbing, piping, and mechanical system deficiencies.
- Knowledge of plumbing and piping safety practices, including proper isolation, lockout/tagout, PPE, and safe work procedures.
- Knowledge of proper testing and inspection methods used to verify the integrity and safe operation of plumbing and piping systems.
Skills (maybe):
- Demonstrate commitment to working safely, acting ethically, and taking personal accountability for operational excellence. (maybe more attitude)
- Use appropriate tools and techniques to braze, solder, cement, thread, roll-groove, and press pipe and tubing.
- Operate shop equipment, test jigs, and use piping/tubing installation/repair/maintenance tools, as well as basic hand and power tools.
- Couple and align mechanical/piping, tubing systems, and components.
- Read and interpret drawings and sketches proficiently.
- Review scope with customers to define job requirements, offer recommendations for improving product outcomes, and provide status updates on jobs in progress to project managers and management.
- Resolve problems and ensure customer satisfaction.
- Participate in work planning walk-downs, material identification/recommendation, man-hour estimating, and material procurement as required.
- Maintain good housekeeping practices by keeping work areas clean and organized.
- Maintain compliance with all Lab required training and safety programs.
- Work on drawings, schematics, and work specifications to produce successful outcomes using modern techniques and tools of the trade.
- Follow safety and PPE requirements when working in Labs and Radiological work area.
- Use computers and associated software to prepare logs and reports, send and receive emails, complete computer-based training and enter time.
These are more like duties/skills. Could put under Skills.
Environmental, Health, And Safety Requirements: physical requirements list. Could be part of Requirements or separate? But we have no heading for that; we could incorporate into Requirements or maybe under Qualifications? But we have no specific heading for physical requirements. Could include under Requirements as bullet points.
Other Information: union membership, salary, benefits, placement policy, REAL-ID, UPIV, etc. Salary and Benefits we already have sections. Placement policy maybe not needed. Could include under About the role? Might be extra but not required. We should preserve all substantive information; we cannot drop salary, benefits, union requirement, placement policy, REAL-ID, UPIV. We need to include them somewhere. Could add a section "Other Information" but not in allowed headings. The allowed headings list is examples; we can use others? The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., meaning those are examples, but we should likely stick to those headings. However we need to include all substantive info; we could fit union membership, placement policy, REAL-ID, UPIV under About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? Not ideal. Perhaps we can create an "Additional Information" section but that's not in the list; risk of being considered filler? The instruction says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to stick to those headings and place extra info under appropriate ones.
We can put union membership and placement policy under About the role (since it's about the role). REAL-ID and UPIV could be under Requirements (as they are requirements for employment). Or under Qualifications? They are requirements. Let's put them under Requirements.
Now Benefits: we have statement: "Brookhaven National Laboratory is committed to employee success and we believe that a comprehensive employee benefits program is an important and meaningful part of the compensation employees receive. Review more information at BNL | Benefits Program". That's substantive. So Benefits section with that sentence and link.
Pay: salary per hour $46.48.
Schedule: Mon-Friday 8am to 4:30pm.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use for each section heading, then content:

for prose,
- for lists.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not needed.
Let's craft:
