• Press a wide variety of garment types, including shirts, pants, suits, sport coats, skirts, blouses, gowns/dresses, and specialty or delicate items
• Identify fabric type (cotton, wool, silk, polyester, linen, blends, etc.) and select the correct heat, steam, and pressure settings for each garment to avoid scorching, shine, shrinkage, or other damage
• Maintain a constant, steady pace to keep up with the flow of garments coming from the hanging/sorting station and avoid creating a bottleneck in production
• Inspect each garment before pressing for stains, damage, missing buttons, broken zippers, or other issues, and flag or set aside items that need special attention
• Inspect each garment after pressing for a clean, crisp, wrinkle-free, professional finish before it moves to the next stage

Qualifications & Physical Requirements:

• Prior experience pressing garments in a dry cleaning or garment care setting strongly preferred; will train motivated candidates without experience
• Ability to stand at a pressing station for the entire duration of an 8-hour shift, minus scheduled breaks — this job requires standing in place for extended periods, not just being active

• Ability to safely handle steam, heat, and pressing machinery, including awareness of burn and injury hazards

• Ability to lift and carry garments up to 5 lbs repeatedly throughout the shift
• Manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination to handle garments quickly and precisely
• Ability to work quickly and accurately in a fast-paced production environment without sacrificing quality
• Strong attention to detail and pride in producing high-quality, professional results
• Ability to distinguish between fabric types and follow garment care labels/instructions
• Ability to receive feedback professionally and work well with others in a calm, emotionally mature way
• Reliable, punctual attendance is required. No-call/no-shows and repeated lateness will not be tolerated and will result in termination. (Legally protected absences — such as jury duty, approved medical leave, or other legally protected leave — are excluded from this policy.)
•  

This is a demanding, hands-on production role. You will be on your feet at a hot press station for the full shift, working at a fast, steady pace in a warm/humid environment. Please apply only if you understand and can meet the physical demands and attendance requirements described above.
