Are you passionate about pitching in to improve our planet? Are you a self-starter who takes initiative to make a positive change? PeopleReady is looking to add Waste Recycling Workers in a fast-growing industry.

Recycling helps conserve limited resources, and it has other environmental benefits as well. As a Waste Recycling Worker, you will work along conveyor belts, and as waste materials come down, you would pull out any items that cannot be recycled. You will sometimes work as a quality control inspector and remove unwanted materials from a single stream. Does this position sound like a solid fit?
