Physical Demands / Working Conditions:
Employees working in general manufacturing facilities must meet certain physical requirements to perform their duties safely and effectively. These typically include the ability to stand and walk for long periods, often throughout an entire shift. Workers should be able to lift, carry, and/or move up to 50 pounds occasionally when lifting devices are not present. Repetitive use of hands, wrists, and arms is common, along with regular bending, kneeling, and climbing. Visual and hearing acuity are necessary for reading instructions, inspecting products, and responding to equipment alerts, and manual dexterity is essential for operating tools and machinery.
The working conditions in manufacturing environments can be physically demanding and vary based on the facility and type of production. Employees may be exposed to fluctuating temperatures, high noise levels, and potential hazards such as moving machinery, chemicals, or sharp objects. The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) including gloves, safety glasses, ear protection, and steel-toed boots is often required. The work is typically fast paced with performance expectations to meet frequent deadlines. Schedules may involve shift work, overtime, weekends, or holiday hours to meet production demands.
