Production Line Worker (Food Factory)

Good factory hands stay for years, and this furniture assembly factory in Brackenfell trains from day one. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is Brackenfell-based, with most of your time spent at a furniture assembly factory.

• Check product for size, weight and seal faults and pull out rejects
• Clean down machines and floors at the end of each run
• Move full bins and crates to the next station with a trolley
• Stop the line with the emergency stop if anything jams or looks unsafe
• Hand over at shift change with notes on rejects and stoppages
• Change over packaging film and labels when the line switches product

• Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
• Medically fit; some food plants ask for a medical check
• No problem wearing full PPE, including ear protection
• Able to stand for a full shift in a noisy, warm area
• Grade 10 minimum, matric an advantage

• Staff shop with discounted factory products
• Company transport on some night shifts
• Free PPE, overalls and hairnets

• Name the products you worked on before, like "biscuit line" or "juice bottling". Factory recruiters read that faster than a job title.
• Mention that you can work rotating shifts right at the top. It is the first thing most factories filter on.
