The Department of Sanitation says registration is now open for those interested in working to clear snow and ice over the winter.
These employees will be per-diem workers who shovel snow and clear ice from bus stops, crosswalks, fire hydrants and step streets around the five boroughs.
As for the pay, snow laborers earn $15 per hour to start, and $22.50 per hour after working 40 hours in a week.
Those interested must be at least 18 years of age, be eligible to work in the United States, and capable of performing heavy physical labor.
"The Snow Laborers who join us for the winter season are crucial in helping the City keep running after big winter storms," said Sanitation Commissioner Kathryn Garcia. "While the Department's Sanitation Workers concentrate their efforts on roadways, Emergency Snow Laborers help ensure pedestrians can make their way around the city, too."
Anyone who wants to apply can register at their local Sanitation garage, weekdays between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The following items are required:
--Two small photos (1 square)
--Original and copy of two forms of identification
--Social Security card
People can also register at select Department of Transportation locations. DOT offices will be open Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. and require the same photos and ID.
