Pest Control and Hygiene Assistant

Tough, messy cleaning at a mining workshop in Bloemfontein, paid better than ordinary cleaning. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

This post is Bloemfontein-based, with most of your time spent at a mining workshop.

• Lock out machines before cleaning, as the safety file requires
• Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
• Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up
• Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
• Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine
• Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run
• Foam, scrub and rinse walls, floors and conveyors with approved chemicals

• Respect for chemical safety and PPE
• Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work
• Willing to work nights and weekends when plants shut down
• Not scared of heights for window or rope crews

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

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