Becoming a traffic flagger is a good choice whether you’re just starting out or you’re changing careers. There are several careers that transfer well to Traffic Plan jobs.
FORMER POLICE OFFICERS
Police officers protect citizens by preventing crime, enforcing laws, apprehending suspects, and monitoring traffic. We employ police officers who uphold the values of protecting the public as well as share the Traffic Plan core values that appreciate the integrity of diversity and inclusion.
MILITARY
Military personnel who did not choose to re-enlist to active duty, or who are currently serving in the Reserve, fit in very well in the Traffic Plan family. These men and women have a passion for serving the public, and they handle weather elements and the value of safety precautions well. They are also respectful and assertive in crisis situations.
CONSTRUCTION TRADE
Traffic Plan has full-time positions available year-round, and since individuals in construction often temporarily discontinue their work during off-season months a Traffic Plan job is a perfect match. Those in the construction trade are also skilled at braving all weather elements and may benefit from paid premiums on health insurance.
There is a very clear career path that traffic flaggers can benefit from at Traffic Plan. When employees prove to be reliable and hardworking, with a good attitude, they are often promoted quickly.
