Requisitos

2 months experience working in a commercial greenhouse. The employer requires all-newly hired employees to take and pass an employer-paid background check due to working with the public, the presence of children on the farm, and the responsibility of managing expensive tools and equipment. All background checks are conducted uniformly after an initial job offer has been extended and accepted by the new hire. All new employees are subject to a post-hire, employer-paid, random, upon suspicion, or post-accident drug test. Any employee who declines to take or fails this drug test will be terminated and paid for all hours worked, if any.
