  • Inspect finished products to ensure they meet quality standards.
  • Follow safety procedures and help maintain a clean, organized workspace.

What We’re Looking For:

  • High School diploma, GED, or equivalent is required.
  • Ability to understand and follow basic verbal and written instructions.
  • Ability to read sufficiently to identify various printed forms and count accurately.
  • Show up reliably and work well with a team

Physical & Work Environment:

Work is performed in a factory environment with regular exposure to dust, dirt, noise, and physical hazards of machinery, plus some exposure to fumes, oils, lubricants, and chemicals.

  • Walking: Must be able to walk with ease, as some operations require constant walking.
  • Standing: Must be able to stand (almost all jobs operations require long hours) on a concrete floor, or wooden platform.
  • Lifting: Must be able to lift various materials weighing up to 50 pounds continuously.
  • Twisting: Must be able to twist/rotate at the waist, up to 90 degrees, when loading or packing.
