Work Environment

The facility focuses on remanufacturing heavy equipment engines, transmissions, and powertrains, including teardown, cleaning, reassembly, testing, and painting of components. This is not a typical manufacturing environment and is not temperature controlled, so conditions may vary with the seasons. Standard scheduling is based on 4x10-hour shifts, with the expectation to work 10–12 hours per day, 4–5 days per week depending on production needs. First shift typically starts at 6:00 a.m., and second shift typically starts at 4:00 p.m. Work involves operating forklifts, pallet jacks, and other material-handling equipment, as well as working in and around a paint booth. When painting, employees wear a respirator and appropriate personal protective equipment in line with safety requirements.
