The working conditions expose the workers to dirty, noisy, dusty areas where very disagreeable odors are present.
The hazards of the job require wearing hard hats, safety shoes and glasses, when working with dangerous machinery, tools or equipment in confined spaces.
Work is frequently performed in adverse weather conditions for long periods of time.
There are positions in this class where employees have considerable contact with the public which requires courtesy and patience while providing information on county practices and policies.
