Work Environment The work environment involves everyday risks or discomforts that require normal safety precautions. Work is performed in an office type setting where the work area provides adequate light, heat, and ventilation or in an industrial environment where lighting may be limited, temperatures may vary and ventilation can be poor; however, research and reviews will require frequent visits into warehouse and operational areas of the Distribution Center. These industrial areas include warehouses, secured areas, outdoor spaces, and warehouse areas with mechanized material handling equipment. Some exposure to weather, dust and noise is likely during reviews. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional, philanthropic, religious, spiritual, community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment.
