  Work Environment

  The work environment is dusty, noisy, and busy, with approximately 60 staff members working in the yard and facility alongside 18 outdoor forklifts. Employees will work outdoors in all weather conditions and must dress appropriately for the weather. While the forklifts are heated, operators will spend a significant portion of their shifts exposed to extreme cold during winter. The facility is not transit accessible. Night shifts run from Monday to Friday, 9 PM to 6 AM, ending on Saturday morning. Employees must wear steel toe boots and safety vests, with the possibility of purchasing these items after the initial period. The most common safety concern is twisted ankles due to uneven ground, so proper footwear is essential.
