Job Responsibilities:

• Maintain product flow.      Monitor the hopper and replenish it early enough to prevent the machine      from running empty, while avoiding overfilling, spills, or product damage.
• Verify before loading.      Confirm the assigned line, active work order/item, product description,      lot identification, and material status before opening or dumping any      container. Ask the Area Lead when anything does not match.
• Load from totes safely.      Confirm the tote tag and condition, keep the product protected, and use      only approved tote-handling or dumping equipment for which the employee is      trained and authorized.
• Load from cases safely.      Inspect cases and inner liners for damage or contamination, open them with      approved tools, prevent cardboard, plastic, tape, staples, or other      foreign material from entering the hopper, and empty product without      unnecessary loss.
• Control partial containers.      Keep opened or unused product identified, covered, separated, and returned      or staged according to plant procedure so the product and lot remain      traceable.
• Manage empty packaging.      Remove liners and waste as directed, break empty boxes into flat pieces,      and move cardboard promptly to the designated collection area.
• Maintain housekeeping.      Keep floors, platforms, aisles, hopper access points, tools, and nearby      staging areas clean, dry, organized, and free of trip hazards, loose      packaging, and spilled product.
• Communicate material needs early.      Notify the Area Lead before the staged product is depleted and immediately      report late material, shortages, questionable status, damaged containers,      spills, foreign material, or any condition that may stop the line.
• Support      changeovers. Stop loading at the correct      time, remove prior-product containers and packaging, protect or return      unused product, and complete assigned cleaning or setup tasks before the      next material is introduced.
