ABOUT THE COMPANY
Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) is a leader in the environmental services industry. We provide customers with the most complete set of products and services, including recycling, waste, special waste, hazardous waste and field services. Our industry-leading commitments to advance circularity and support decarbonization are helping deliver on our vision to partner with customers to create a more sustainable world.
In 2025, Republic’s total company revenue was $16.6 billion, and adjusted EBITDA was $5.3 billion. We serve 13 million customers and operate more than 1,000 locations, including collection and transfer stations, recycling and polymer centers, treatment facilities, and landfills.
Although we operate across North America, the collection, recycling, treatment, or disposal of materials is a local business, and the dynamics and opportunities differ in each market we serve. By combining local operational management with standardized business practices, we drive greater operating efficiencies across the company while maintaining day-to-day operational decisions at the local level, closest to the customer.
Our customers, including small businesses, major corporations and municipalities, want a partner with the expertise and capabilities to effectively manage their multiple recycling and waste streams. They choose Republic Services because we are committed to exceeding their expectations and helping them achieve their sustainability goals. Our 42,000 team members understand that it's not just what we do that matters, but how we do it.
Our company values guide our daily actions:
- Safe: We protect the livelihoods of our colleagues and communities.
- Committed to Serve: We go above and beyond to exceed our customers’ expectations.
- Environmentally Responsible: We take action to improve our environment.
- Driven: We deliver results in the right way.
- Human-Centered: We respect the dignity and unique potential of every person.
We are proud of our high employee engagement score of 86. We have an inclusive and diverse culture where every voice counts. In addition, our team positively impacted 5.1 million people in 2024 through the Republic Services Charitable Foundation and local community grants. These projects are designed to meet the specific needs of the communities we serve, with a focus on building sustainable neighborhoods.
STRATEGY
Republic Services’ strategy is designed to generate profitable growth. Through acquisitions and industry advancements, we safely and sustainably manage our customers’ multiple waste streams through a North American footprint of vertically integrated assets.
We focus on three areas of growth to meet the increasing needs of our customers: recycling and waste, environmental solutions and sustainability innovation.
With our integrated approach, strengthening our position in one area advances other areas of our business. For example, as we grow volume in recycling and waste, we collect additional material to bolster our circularity capabilities. And as we expand environmental solutions, we drive additional opportunities to provide these services to our existing recycling and waste customers.
Recycling and Waste
We continue to expand our recycling and waste business footprint throughout North America through organic growth and targeted acquisitions. The 13 million customers we serve and our more than 5 million pick-ups per day provide us with a distinct advantage. We aggregate materials at scale, unlocking new opportunities for advanced recycling. In addition, we are cross-selling new products and services to better meet our customers’ specific needs.
Environmental Solutions
Our comprehensive environmental solutions capabilities help customers safely manage their most technical waste streams. We are expanding both our capabilities and our geographic footprint. We see strong growth opportunities for our offerings, including PFAS remediation, an increasing customer need.
Sustainability Innovation
Republic’s recent innovations to advance circularity and decarbonization demonstrate our unique ability to leverage sustainability as a platform for growth.
The Republic Services Polymer Center is the nation’s first integrated plastics recycling facility. These innovative sites process rigid plastics from our recycling centers, producing recycled materials that promote true bottle-to-bottle circularity. We also formed Blue Polymers, a joint venture with Ravago, to develop facilities that will further process plastic material from our Polymer Centers to help meet the growing demand for sustainable packaging. We are building a network of Polymer Centers and Blue Polymer facilities across North America.
Our customers are increasingly looking for decarbonization solutions, and we are leveraging our network of landfills to meet that need. Republic is committed to harnessing landfill gas, a natural byproduct of decomposing waste, and converting it to energy. Republic has partnered with renewable gas developers to construct Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) plants at our landfills, expanding beyond the 77 projects we currently have to make progress towards our goal to beneficially reuse 50% more biogas by 2030 (2017 baseline year).

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Shift Manager
Verify your degree satisfies specialty occupation
H-1B approval hinges on your role requiring at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field. Pull the O*NET profile for Shift Manager and confirm your degree aligns with the theoretical and practical knowledge listed there.
Target employers with LCA filing history
Not every Shift Manager employer files H-1B petitions. Use Migrate Mate to filter for employers who have active LCA filings in retail, logistics, or food service operations before you apply.
Ask employers how they classify the role
Some employers post Shift Manager jobs under broader SOC codes like General and Operations Managers, which affects your prevailing wage level and petition strength. Clarify the SOC code the employer plans to use before accepting an offer.
Check prevailing wage before negotiating your offer
Your offered salary must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for your location and SOC code. Run the OFLC Wage Search for your metro area early, so you enter salary negotiations knowing the legal floor.
Confirm the employer is enrolled in E-Verify
USCIS requires cap-exempt employers and certain federal contractors to use E-Verify, but it signals broader compliance readiness. Ask HR directly whether the company participates before the LCA is filed.
Document supervisory scope in your job description
USCIS scrutinizes Shift Manager petitions more heavily when duties look primarily operational rather than requiring specialized knowledge. Request that your offer letter explicitly details budgeting authority, staff oversight, and any analytical responsibilities tied to your degree.
H-1B Visa Shift Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Shift Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
It depends on how the employer defines the position. USCIS requires that the role normally require a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific specialty. A Shift Manager position that emphasizes operations coordination without requiring field-specific knowledge may face an RFE. Roles with budgeting, data analysis, or supply chain duties tied to a relevant degree are stronger candidates.
Which industries sponsor H-1B visas for Shift Manager positions?
Retail chains, logistics and warehouse operators, and large food service companies are the most common sponsors for this title. Manufacturing and healthcare facilities that run multi-department shift operations also file LCAs for Shift Manager roles. You can browse employers with verified H-1B filing history for this occupation on Migrate Mate.
What happens to my H-1B status if my Shift Manager job is eliminated?
You have a 60-day grace period after your employment ends to find a new sponsor, change status, or depart the U.S. Your employer is also required to pay for your return transportation home if the job is terminated before your petition period ends. Notify USCIS promptly and avoid unauthorized work during this window.
Can my H-1B employer move me to a different location as a Shift Manager?
Yes, but each new worksite in a different metropolitan statistical area requires a new Labor Condition Application certified by DOL before you start working there. Your employer must post the LCA at the new location and update your H-1B petition if the move is long-term. Short-term assignments under 60 days may be exempt from the full re-filing requirement.
What SOC code applies to Shift Manager roles on an H-1B petition?
Employers typically use First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, First-Line Supervisors of Food Preparation and Serving Workers, or General and Operations Managers, depending on the industry. The SOC code determines your prevailing wage level, so the choice directly affects your minimum required salary. Confirm which code the employer's immigration attorney plans to use before your LCA is filed.
