Job Title: General Production Worker Job Description

The General Production Worker focuses on repairing and maintaining large production bins, specifically their sides and feet, to support daily manufacturing operations. The role involves careful use of hand and power tools, adherence to detailed safety instructions, and occasional support of forklift-related duties in a fast-paced warehouse environment.

• Repair the sides and feet of large production bins according to detailed instructions and established procedures.
• Inspect bins to identify damaged or worn components, including sides, feet, and internal debris, and determine necessary repairs.
• Use pallet jack lifts to move bins safely to and from the work area, avoiding manual lifting of bins whenever possible.
• When bins must be moved by hand, coordinate with a second person and wear leather gloves to reduce the risk of muscle injuries and cuts from sharp edges.
• Visually examine bins for sharp edges and pinch points, and use caution when opening bins to prevent injury.
• Remove all debris from inside bins, including paper, regrind, and loose objects, to prepare them for repair.
• Operate the designated cutting tool to remove plastic bin feet, keeping both hands on the tool and maintaining a safe distance from the cutting edge while it is running.
• Unplug cutting tools before changing blades or performing any maintenance on the equipment.
• Avoid using unauthorized tools, such as screwdrivers, to remove bin feet, and follow approved methods only.
• Wear leather gloves when removing and installing bin feet, and use a plastic impact hammer to tap feet into place while keeping hands clear of impact areas.
• Remove rods that hold bin sides in place using the chisel holder with reaming tool, following safety guidelines.
• Install replacement rods by hand while moving bin sides up and down to allow the rod to slide into position, then use a plastic impact hammer to secure the rod for the final few inches.
• Lift and position side panels that may weigh up to 50 pounds, holding panels away from the body and at shoulder height as required for installation.
• Perform assembly, disassembly, and repair tasks on bins using appropriate hand tools and power tools.
• Support forklift-related duties as needed after cross-training, following all safety and operational procedures.
• Interact professionally with managers, employees, vendors, and customers as required in the course of daily operations.
• Maintain regular, predictable, and punctual attendance to support consistent production output.
• Work under pressure to meet deadlines while maintaining a positive attitude and providing courteous, customer-focused service.
• Work independently to carry out assignments to completion within given instructions, prescribed routines, and accepted standard practices.
• Collaborate effectively with team members, proactively contributing to group objectives and volunteering to assist others when needed.
• Communicate clearly and effectively, conveying facts and information both verbally and in writing to internal and external stakeholders.

• Experience using hand tools for assembly, disassembly, and repair tasks.
• Experience using power tools safely, including cutting tools and impact tools, with adherence to lockout and unplugging procedures when changing blades.
• Ability to perform physical tasks such as lifting side panels up to 50 pounds and holding them at shoulder height while working.
• Ability to use pallet jacks to move large bins safely within a manufacturing and warehouse environment.
• Ability to follow detailed written and verbal instructions for bin repair, including proper removal and installation of bin feet and sides.
• Ability to maintain regular, predictable, and punctual attendance in a production setting.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills to interact effectively with internal and external customers.
• Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines while maintaining a positive attitude and providing exemplary customer service.
• Ability to work independently and complete assignments within established instructions, routines, and standard practices.
• Ability to collaborate well with others, proactively contributing to team objectives and volunteering to help coworkers.
• Comfort working in a manufacturing and warehouse environment with ongoing production activity.
• Basic comfort with computer usage and typing, with computer skills preferred for documentation or communication.

• Previous experience in assembly, repair, or production work in a manufacturing or warehouse setting.
• Experience with bin repair or similar maintenance tasks involving plastic components and mechanical fasteners.
• Familiarity with forklift operations and willingness to be cross-trained to support forklift duties as needed.
• Ability to recognize and avoid pinch points and sharp edges while working with large plastic bins and components.
• Demonstrated ability to provide professional, customer-focused service when interacting with managers, employees, vendors, and customers.
• Strong teamwork and collaboration skills, including clear communication and willingness to assist others.
