We need to remove EEO/legal boilerplate. So we will omit those paragraphs.
We need to keep benefits description: "Eaton provides various Health and Welfare benefits as well as Retirement benefits, and several programs that provide for paid and unpaid time away from work. Click here for more detail: Eaton Benefits Overview." Also note about eligibility factors maybe keep.
We need to keep salary range.
We need to keep travel/hybrid.
We need to keep responsibilities list.
We need to keep qualifications (basic and preferred) and position criteria (knowledge, skills, etc). Might combine qualifications and skills.
We need to avoid duplication: Some items repeat (driver license, MVR check) appears both in Basic Qualifications and Position Criteria. We should keep but not duplicate? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in original; but we could deduplicate? It says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we deduplicate, we might be summarizing away detail (removing duplicate). Safer to keep both occurrences? But that would be repetitive. However, the instruction says "remove duplicated lines". So we should remove duplicated lines. So we need to eliminate duplicate content.
Thus we need to identify duplicate lines and keep only one.
Duplicates:
