Commissioners approve 20-hour sanitarium posting; opt for national listing and local ads
Summary
The commission agreed to advertise a proposed 20-hour-per-week sanitarium position (example schedule 10 a.m.–3 p.m.) on a national environmental health job board for 30 days at $299, with local job-service postings and website listings; commissioners asked for scheduling flexibility and to revisit hours if applications are thin.
Commissioners reviewed a proposed sanitarium job description, debating required education, hours and compensation. The board agreed there is not sufficient ongoing work for a full-time (40‑hour) position and approved recruiting for a 20‑hour per week role (an example schedule of 10 a.m.–3 p.m. with an hour lunch was discussed) while retaining flexibility to set hours with a successful candidate.
Staff proposed posting the job on the Environmental Health and Safety job board for an initial 30‑day period at $299, with the option to extend to 60 days or pay for a featured listing if the commission wants that broader reach. The commission approved the 30‑day national posting, adding free local postings (state job service and county website) and local newspaper placement as appropriate. Commissioners asked HR to monitor applicant flow and revisit hour/benefit decisions if the hiring pool is thin.
The posting will be listed "open until filled," and staff will start advertising immediately.
