Without specific authorization from the foreman or crew boss, workers may not perform duties not listed in this job order, work in unassigned areas, or leave the work area or farm premises. Leaving a job assignment area or farm without authorization will be considered a voluntary resignation.

Temperatures may range from below freezing to 105°F. Workers may be required to work when trees or crops are wet from dew or rain and should wear appropriate clothing for variable weather conditions. Work may continue during light rain that does not prevent field operations. Saturday work is required.
