Seafood Processor (Local Hire) – Sitka Sound Seafoods

Sitka Sound Seafoods, North Pacific Seafoods’ year-round plant in Sitka, fills hourly processor positions from the local community as openings arise, with the heaviest work during the summer salmon peak.

Pay is $17.00 an hour with overtime at $25.50 after eight hours in a day or 40 in a week under Alaska law, plus a raise at 500 hours. This posting is only for people already living in Sitka: no housing, meals or airfare are offered and you arrange your own way to the plant. Applicants must be 18, work-authorized, able to lift 50 pounds repeatedly, and pass random drug screening; incomplete applications are discarded.
