From road repair to culvert replacement in the summer to plowing in the winter, Transportation Workers are an essential part of the MaineDOT team getting Mainers from point A to point B safely. Transportation workers are on the front lines of roadwork, putting in long hours in all types of weather to make sure Mainers and their families are safe on our state's roads, bridges, and highways.

A day in the life of a Transportation Worker changes with the seasons, meaning employees learn new skills and no two days are exactly the same.

  • Ability to obtain flagger certification within a specified amount of time.

Under federal law, only U.S. Citizens, Permanent Residents, or H-2A, H-2B, or E-2 visa holders will be eligible for new or renewed CDLs.

Interested applicants need to apply online by clicking the "Apply for this Opening/Apply Now" button along with uploading a cover letter, current resume, and any applicable copies of post-secondary transcripts, licensing, registration and certifications.

No matter where you work across Maine state government, you find employees who embody our state motto"Dirigo" or "I lead"as they provide essential services to Mainers every day. We believe in supporting our workforce's health and wellbeing with a valuable total compensation package, including:

  • Work-Life Fit Rest is essential. Take time for yourself using 13 paid holidays, and 3+ weeks of vacation leave annually. Vacation leave accrual increases with years of service, and overtime-exempt employees receive personal leave.
  • Wellness We care about you and your family's wellbeing, offering 12 days of sick leave annually to help you stay healthy.
  • Health Insurance Coverage The State of Maine pays 85%-95% of employee-only premiums ($11,196.96 - $12,514.32 annual value), depending on salary. Use this chart to find the premium costs for you and your family, including the percentage of dependent coverage paid by the State.
  • Dental Insurance The State of Maine pays 100% of employee-only dental premiums ($358.08 annual value).
  • Retirement Plan The State contributes the equivalent of 14.11% of the employee's pay towards the Maine Public Employees Retirement System (MainePERS).

State employees are eligible for an extensive and highly competitive benefits package, covering many aspects of wellness. Learn about additional wellness benefits for State employees from the Office of Employee Health and Wellness.

Note: Benefits may vary somewhat according to specific collective bargaining agreements and are prorated for anything less than full-time.

As an Equal Opportunity employer, Maine State Government embraces a culture of respect and awareness.
