## Digital Scalar

**Band**: physical
**Digital**: 0.15
**Rationale**: Without seeded child job types, I am relying on the company description and parent industry ('Nonmetallic Mineral Mining and Quarrying'). Key roles like 'Vacuum Harvester Operator', 'Heavy Duty Mechanic', and 'Baling Line Operator' working in 'Peat Harvesting' and 'Heavy Equipment Maintenance' departments indicate the value-producing work is overwhelmingly physical, hands-on, and machine-operated outdoors.
