SOC 45-2093 — 100% of work performed. Employees assist throughout the hatchery and on farms by handling eggs and chicks during receiving, loading, unloading, and transport at the hatchery, farms, and shipping locations, including driving vans to these locations as needed. Work also includes placing eggs on trays, loading trays into incubators, transferring eggs from incubators to hatchers, loading chicks into a separator for gender sorting, toe/wing/beak clipping, vaccinating, filling customer orders, dumping product waste, and cleaning and sanitizing the facility and equipment so production areas remain ready for continued hatchery operations.

Employer may also, at its sole discretion, offer performance-based incentive bonuses that are not guaranteed and are determined by the employer.
