We are seeking a dedicated, highly skilled, and safety-conscious Floor Care

sealing, buffing, and burnishing.

• Equipment Operation Upkeep: Daily operation, inspection, and routine

maintenance of heavy industrial floor care machinery, including ride-on

sweepers, walk-behind scrubbers, high-speed burnishers, and scarifies.

appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), properly handling industrial

cleaning chemicals, and ensuring that all walkways and aisles remain hazard-
