Job duties

Official text in English.

Prepare the soil for the preharvest, harvesting, and post-harvesting of plantain, squash, melon, citrus, taro, coco yam and papaya. Most of the workdays are spent outdoors on one's feet, with constant movement as they move from one field to another. Workers must be able to stand, walk uphill and downhill, sit, squat, kneel, crouch, bend (from the waist), push, pull, reach, lift, and carry items weighing in the range of 5 to 75 pounds. Driving and operating passenger vehicles and farm equipment may be required. The worker may be requested but not required to work up to 12 hours per day and/or Federal Holidays, as well as Saturdays, depending upon the conditions in the fields, weather, and maturity of the crop. The manager or supervisor will notify workers at the end of the workday if there is any change in the start and time anticipated hours of work for the following day. Regular attendance by all workers during scheduled hours of the workday and/or work period is expected. Unsatisfactory attendance: including reporting late, excessive requests to leave before the end of the workday, not abiding by housing, or transport regulations, etc., may be cause for disciplinary action. Providing services to other farmers outside the scope of the H2A Visa will result in immediate contract termination. Workers must call their manager or supervisor at least one day before the start of the workday if they do not expect to be in on time. Further information on the Employer's Attendance Policy is in the Employee Handbook.
