• Check product before removing from floor to make sure no obvious quality defects are present (broken parts, poor fill, grease, etc.). If found, return to the machine for repack.

• Remove all full material handling carts and/or pallets from the Production floor, logging the number of bundles/pallets on the Material Handlers Record Sheet (QS018), and placing them into finished goods staging areas on the first floor.

• May be asked to cover production needs when operators are on break.
