Below
is a brief excerpt from one of the Program's information
handouts:Each individual will complete an application and
take an assessment test. Your placement on the pay scale will be
determined primarily by your score on this assessment test. Your
first 90 days are what we call a probationary period, during
which you participate in a hands-on evaluation scheduled for you
by the Organizing Office. We'll send you a letter letting you
know when to come for the evaluation so please keep your contact
information current with us. Please keep in mind that this
hands-on evaluation is mandatory.
At the end of your probationary period you are eligible to
begin training courses at our Training Center. These are not
mandatory, however, if you wish to advance from the level at
which you were originally placed to a higher level of pay, you
must complete 2000 hours of on-the-job training AND take the
required classes (for a detailed listing of classes required for
each level, please see the
CW-CE Program Catalog).
All applicants are required to pass a drug screen prior to
each job assignment.
Individuals qualifying at the CW1 through CE5 levels receive
a 3% contractor-paid pension plan. Those qualifying at the CE6
through CE8 levels receive the 3% contractor-paid pension plan
plus an additional 10% contractor-paid pension plan.
