Description

Job openings should be numerous because the occupation is very large and turnover is relatively high. Most jobs require little work experience or specific training. Pay is low, and the seasonal nature of the work may reduce earnings.

Other workers who operate mechanical equipment include bus drivers; construction equipment operators; machine setters, operators, and tenders—metal and plastic; rail transportation workers; and truck drivers and driver/sales workers. Other entry-level workers who perform mostly physical work are agricultural workers; building cleaning workers; construction laborers; forest, conservation, and logging workers; and grounds maintenance workers.
