Clean and sanitize work surfaces, tools, containers, and equipment according to established procedures.
Immediately report unsafe conditions, near misses, hazards, injuries, incidents, spills, damaged equipment, and food safety concerns to the Production Lead or Supervisor.
Wear and properly maintain all required personal protective equipment.
Follow food manufacturing hygiene requirements, including handwashing, hair and beard restraints, protective clothing, footwear, and restrictions concerning jewellery or personal items.
Use appropriate lifting, pushing, pulling, and material-handling techniques to prevent injury.
