equipment operator

Workers are needed from December until May to use skid steers to scrape manure and mud from concrete cattle areas to include barns, feedlots, and alleyways to maintain hygiene, cattle health, and efficient operations. Workers will maintain areas to be clean, dry and add salt to ensure non-slip surfaces to reduce injury and improve overall cattle welfare during times of freezing, muddy conditions. Workers will keep manure flush system in barns free from frozen buildup around drop holes, check heating elements and replace as needed though out buildings and water troughs, check and rake sand beds to ensure they are not freezing, plow snow and maintain gravel roads. Once the ground thaws and risk of snow and freezing conditions have passed, robotic scrapers are then utilized until the next winter season, worker will maintain and repair these to ensure proper operation prior to use.

Workers are required to work 6 days a week and may be requested to work 7 days a week; workers will alternate days off so that at least one person is working this position daily.
