Industrial Cleaner (Mining Workshop)

Tough, messy cleaning at a commercial kitchen in Upington, paid better than ordinary cleaning. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

The site is in Upington; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

• Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
• Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
• Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine
• Test sanitiser strength with test strips and record the reading
• Lock out machines before cleaning, as the safety file requires
• Store chemicals in the locked chemical store with safety data sheets
• Foam, scrub and rinse walls, floors and conveyors with approved chemicals

• Respect for chemical safety and PPE
• Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
• Not scared of heights for window or rope crews
• Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work

• Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators
• Paid training on machines and chemicals
• Night-shift and standby allowances
• Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning

• If you hold a heights or rope access ticket, attach it. It can double what you earn in this line of work.
• Say you are available for night and shutdown work. That is when most factory hygiene cleaning happens.
