Primary Job Duties:

1) Gathering eggs from the conveyor belts inside our nine mobile chicken shelters

2) Washing, weighing, and packing eggs. This includes operating the Egg Processing Machine (washes/weighs/packs eggs), the Egg Grader (weighs eggs), and washing any heavily soiled eggs by hand.

3) Tending to our large/seasonal Turkey and Broiler Chicken flocks.

Temporary/Seasonal Need: Our need for an additional worker is temporary and seasonal due to the cyclical nature of broiler chicken (Spring & Fall), turkey (July-January), and egg production (Year-round, but with seasonal increases in the Spring & Fall). Labor demands increase during periods of peak poultry & egg production, with related increases in flock sizes. All of the aforementioned are affected by both seasonal conditions and market demand. The duties outlined above cannot be performed continuously year-round at the same staffing level. Additional staffing is required only for the duration of the stated contract period.
