Work in constantly changing environments, leveraging your ability to be flexible in job duties while maintaining proper safety and loading procedures.
Work cooperatively with co-workers, dispatchers and company supervisors.
Work responsibly with a minimum amount of supervision.
Report any off-site safety concerns to dispatch in a timely manner.
Perform other job-related duties as assigned by direct supervisor.
