SUPERVISION RECEIVED: Will receive direct supervision from shift supervisor and or team leader.

ACCEPTABLE EDUCATION: Prefer a High School Diploma or GED. Currently assessed at the 8th grade equivalency or higher on the Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE) exam through our Continuous Education and Development (CED) program or have an appropriate WorkKeys score based on the job profile.
