This is an ongoing process that must be continued throughout the work period. Worker must feed bees corn syrup and/or other forms of glucose as needed and weather dictates. Worker must keep hives clean, painted and in good mechanical order for the survival of the bees; must maintain his/her personal equipment provided by the employer to perform his/her duties (smoker, bee suit, ropes, hive tool etc.) in working order in order to be fully effective. Vehicles must be kept clean on a daily basis. Ropes must be maintained in good working order to ensure safety of themselves and the general public. All extracting equipment must be kept in a clean and orderly manner so as to maximize production levels. A beekeeper frequently lifts and moves beehives weighing around 70 pounds. The warehouse and tool room must be kept clean to ensure safety at all times. Barrels and tops must be kept in an orderly layout to maximize production time. In conclusion the worker must respond correctly to the bees and their local environment at all times in order to harmonize with the natural life cycle of the bee; specifically as how it relates to honey production.

Employer will cover the costs associated with the drivers license. Requirements 3 months of experience. 3 months of training. High-School diploma/GED. For foreign workers, we require the equivalent to a high school diploma. Workers need at least basic training for maintaining a beehive, managing bees, pests and diseases, extracting honey, using smokers, and transporting a beehive. Workers will need to obtain a standard driver's license that allows them to operate most vehicles, including cars and trucks, which are what we use in our daily operations. H-2A General Assurances (guarantees to workers) Housing The employer must provide free housing to all workers who are not reasonably able to return to their residences on the same day. Meals The employer must provide either three meals a day to each worker or furnish free and convenient cooking and kitchen facilities.

The employer must provide free transportation between the employer's housing and the work site for any worker who is provided housing. Upon completion of the work contract, the employer must pay the worker's subsistence and return transportation to the place of recruitment. Special conditions apply when the worker will not be returning to the place of recruitment because of another job. Workers Compensation Insurance The employer must provide workers' compensation insurance where it is required by law.

El trabajador debe poder realizar sus tareas durante todo el período de trabajo. El trabajador debe poder identificar y brindar la atención adecuada en las diferentes etapas del ciclo de vida. El trabajador debe tratar a las abejas contra diversas enfermedades y plagas, que incluyen, entre otras, loque americana, ácaros traqueales, escarabajos de Florida, hormigas rojas y, lo más importante, ácaros varroa.
