Yard Switcher - 2nd shift
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content.
From posting:
- Preferred Qualifications: list of items: Current Class A or B CDL with hazardous materials endorsement; 2+ years commercial driving experience compliant with FMCSA/DOT; No more than 2 minor accidents past 3 years; No more than 2 moving violations past 3 years; Prior yard jockey experience.
- Job Summary: description of operating switcher truck, moving trailers, safety checks, opening bay doors, assisting dock workers, operation of company/rental vehicle, average work week, monitoring MVRs, requirement of acceptable MVR status and valid CDL with hazmat endorsement.
- Major Tasks, Responsibilities, And Key Accountabilities: list of tasks: transports trailers within DC, moving between shipping/receiving docks; performs equipment inspections per DOT and internal; couples/uncouples tractor trailer units, connecting/disconnecting brake lines; moves and organizes line haul trailers in shipping yard; ensures trailers ready for loading/unloading/transport; documents all trailer moves; refuels switcher truck when needed.
- Nature and Scope: paragraphs about modifying processes, limited supervision, independent judgment, interpreting procedures, periodic review, sought out to provide guidance/training/technical assistance to junior personnel, contributes to professional development but no hiring/firing authority.
- Work Environment: description: comfortable environment but regular exposure to factors causing discomfort or moderate risk: temperature extremes, moving machinery, loud noises, fumes; requires intermittent periods of continuous physical exertion: walking, standing, stooping, climbing, lifting, maneuvering material/equipment heavy (50+ lbs) or awkward; typically requires overnight travel less than 10% of the time.
- Education And Experience: Technical certification or associate degree may be required in some areas. Generally 5-7 years of experience in a related area of responsibility.
- Our Goals for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: statement about commitment, etc. This is boilerplate? It's not cookie/legal/EEO? It's about DEI. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. DEI might be considered similar to EEO? It's about diversity, equity, inclusion. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. This is a DEI statement, likely considered similar. Safer to remove it.
- Equal Employment Opportunity: definitely boilerplate, remove.
Thus we have content for sections: Responsibilities (Major Tasks...), Requirements (Preferred Qualifications + Job Summary maybe?), Qualifications (Education And Experience), Skills? Not explicitly listed. Could combine Preferred Qualifications as Requirements. Job Summary could be About the role. Nature and Scope could be Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Scope". But we only allowed headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content to these.
About the role: Job Summary.
Responsibilities: Major Tasks, Responsibilities, And Key Accountabilities + Nature and Scope? Nature and Scope is about scope of work, could be part of Responsibilities.
Requirements: Preferred Qualifications (CDL, experience, accidents, violations, yard jockey). Also Job Summary mentions requirement of acceptable MVR status and valid CDL with hazmat endorsement (duplicate). Could include.
Qualifications: Education And Experience (technical certification or associate degree may be required; generally 5-7 years experience). Also maybe "Preferred Qualifications" already used; but we can put Education/Experience under Qualifications.
Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe we could infer skills like "DOT regulations knowledge", "trailer coupling", "inspections", "documentation", "refueling". But we should not invent. If no explicit skills section, we should not create Skills heading.
Benefits, Pay, Schedule: Not mentioned; do not create.
Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications.
We need to use for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title. Must not include boilerplate.
We need to include all details from the sections we keep.
Let's extract details.
Job Summary paragraph:
"Operates a switcher truck to move tractor trailers around the distribution center yard, including backing up trailers to loading docks, performing safety checks to secure trailers, opening bay doors, and assisting dock workers with loading and unloading inventory. This position requires operation of a company or rental vehicle, and this operation may be done during the average work week. If selected for this position, the company will continuously monitor Motor Vehicle Records (MVRs). A requirement of this position is an acceptable MVR status and a valid commercial driver’s license (CDL) with hazardous materials endorsement."
We need to keep that as prose.
Major Tasks, Responsibilities, And Key Accountabilities list:
- Transports trailers within a distribution center, including moving trailers between shipping and receiving docks.
- Performs applicable equipment inspections in accordance with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations and internal procedures.
- Couples and uncouples tractor trailer units, including connecting and disconnecting brake lines as needed.
- Moves and organizes line haul trailers in the shipping yard to ensure the efficient movement of inventory.
- Ensures trailers are ready for loading, unloading, and transport.
- Documents all trailer moves within the shipping yard.
- Refuels switcher truck when needed.
Nature and Scope paragraph(s):
"May modify processes to resolve situations.
Under limited supervision, relies on experience and exercises independent judgment to determine the best approach to achieve desired outcomes.
Course of action is often determined by interpreting procedures and policies.
Work typically involves periodic review of output by a supervisor or direct customers of the process.
Is sought out and/or assigned to provide general guidance/direction, training, and technical assistance to junior level support personnel.
Contributes to employees' professional development but does not have hiring/firing authority."
We could combine as a list or prose. Since it's a list of statements, we could make
- . But the instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is more like responsibilities/scope; could be list. We'll treat as list.
Work Environment and Education And Experience we are not including as separate sections; but we need to preserve all substantive information. If we omit Work Environment and Education And Experience, we lose info. However we can fold Education And Experience into Qualifications section. Work Environment maybe could be part of Responsibilities? Not exactly. But we could include a section "Working Conditions" but not allowed headings. The allowed headings are limited; we cannot create new headings. So we must fit all substantive info into the allowed headings. We can put Work Environment under Responsibilities maybe as a list? Or under About the role? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine Work Environment into Responsibilities or About the role. But we must preserve all info. Let's see if we can incorporate Work Environment details into Responsibilities as a list of working conditions. That seems plausible.
Education And Experience: we can put under Qualifications.
Thus we will have:
About the role: Job Summary paragraph.
Responsibilities: combine Major Tasks list + Nature and Scope list + Work Environment details (maybe as list). We'll need to ensure we don't lose any detail.
Requirements: Preferred Qualifications list.
Qualifications: Education And Experience paragraph (technical certification or associate degree may be required; generally 5-7 years experience). Also maybe mention that "Technical certification or associate degree may be required in some areas." That's it.
We must not create Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to format.
