We have duplicated schedule text already in Requirements; but we can keep it in Schedule section as well. Might be considered duplication but it's okay to preserve. However we might want to avoid duplication but it's not prohibited. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplication is okay as long as we preserve. However we might want to avoid repeating same sentence in two places; but it's still preserving. Could move schedule details only to Schedule section and remove from Requirements. But the requirement about flexible schedules is also a requirement. Might be okay to keep in both but it's duplication. I'd rather keep it only in Schedule section and remove from Requirements to avoid duplication. However the requirement about flexible schedules is a requirement; but we can still keep it under Requirements as a bullet. The schedule section can also mention it. It's not harmful. Let's keep both.
Check for any other boilerplate: we removed EEO, legal, accommodation contact, "Open until position is filled.", "STERIS is a leading global provider...", "If you need assistance completing the application process...", "STERIS is an Equal Opportunity Employer...", "The full affirmative action program...", "To support and service our customers...". Also removed "We value our employees..."? Actually we kept benefits section; we used the bullet list from "What STERIS Offers". That's fine.
Check we didn't miss any substantive info: mention of "onsite mobile repair services, in house repair lab services, or one of five national repair centers." included in About the role. Mention of "You do not have to have previous instrument repair experience to be considered. This is an entry level job - we will train you!" included. Mention of "This role requires occasional travel by driving a company vehicle. If offered this position, STERIS will run a 7 year driving record check, as part of our onboarding process." included.

Benefits: we captured all bullet points from "What STERIS Offers". Also note "Extensive hands-on training and development" etc.
Pay: we captured pay range, bonus participation, minimum pay rates compliance, factors.
Schedule: we captured flexible schedules etc.
Check we didn't inadvertently include any boilerplate like "Click here for a complete list of benefits: STERIS Benefits". We omitted that line. Good.
Check we didn't include "Open until position is filled." Good.
Check we didn't include "STERIS offers a comprehensive and competitive benefits portfolio." We captured benefits but not that line; it's okay.
Check we didn't include "Pay range for this opportunity is $21.86 - $28.29. This position is eligible for bonus participation. Minimum pay rates offered will comply with county/city minimums, if higher than range listed. Pay rates are based on a number of factors, including but not limited to local labor market costs, years of relevant experience, education, professional certifications, foreign language fluency, etc." We captured that.

Check we didn't include "To support and service our customers in this assigned territory candidates must be based out of one of the following state(s): Washington." That's substantive: location requirement. Should we include? It's a requirement about location. It's substantive. We should include it somewhere, maybe under Requirements as a bullet: "Must be based out of Washington state." Let's add.
Add to Requirements bullet: "Must be based out of Washington state."
