Work hours are Monday through Friday from 08:00 AM to 04:30 PM, with the possibility of accommodating block scheduling. The ideal candidate should be willing to work occasional holidays and be flexible with scheduling.

Housing and Vehicle Information

The facility provides housing and a shared-use rental vehicle for travelers during their assignment. Housing is typically a one-bedroom apartment, and vehicles are company-owned for local use.
