About The Position

The team member removes the gut set from hog carcasses using a straight knife and places it on a take-away viscera conveyor. The team member grasps the gut set with one hand and makes a series of cuts with the other hand to free it from the carcass, pulling with minimal force. After removal, the team member turns, walks approximately four steps to the conveyor located about three feet behind the work area, lifts the gut set to approximately waist height, and places it on the conveyor. The team member then returns approximately four steps to the work area for the next carcass. The team member sterilizes and steels the knife as needed, using a sterilizer within easy reach, and stands on a moving walking surface to keep pace with the hogs on the chain. Candidates must be willing and able to perform the physical requirements of the job, with or without reasonable accommodation.
