A Cemetery Worker performs unskilled, semiskilled, and skilled tasks related to interment and marker installation work at the City’s cemetery. Duties range from skilled operation of a backhoe for precision digging of grave sites, including: grave layout and burial site preparation (example: hauling and placing lowering devices), setting markers, pouring concrete borders and pads, and constructing in-ground urn units; covering graves with boards for safety purposes; to semiskilled activities such as: irrigation repair work, maintaining berms to ensure proper water control, maintaining straps and tires on lowering devices, and using a motorized cart to transport lowering devices and canopies to and from grave sites; adjusting and aligning lowering devices over graves and installing side curtains; and tree care, maintenance, and planting of donated trees. An important component of tasks performed by this class is the public contact work involving dealing with grieving individuals. Other cemetery duties include: mowing; trimming; flower removal; cleaning around grave site locations; assisting with special event set ups; and special projects such as exploratory digging in the cemetery expansion area to remove unwanted materials, and excavating and back filling for an archeological dig in the expansion area. This class performs related duties as required.
Work is often done independently under the general supervision of the Cemetery Crew Leader, who reviews work through conferences, spot checking, and results achieved. Some work requires prolonged heavy physical exertion under adverse weather conditions. Work may require weekend work to accommodate burial schedules. This class is FLSA nonexempt.
