About The Position

This position involves learning, performing, and rotating between the roles of packer, scaler, styler, and grader. The primary goal is to maintain line speeds for various products at the designated rate. The role requires working on a moving conveyor belt using both hands to spread or style product, perform packing and weighing tasks, pull bones from product, and inspect and grade product, removing any that do not meet standards. Teamwork and participation in ongoing development, communication, and implementation of team concepts, programs, and policies are essential. This includes fostering cohesiveness, identifying areas lacking cohesion, and working with the team leader to resolve issues and achieve synergy. Familiarity with Simmons' operating systems (quality, security, office environment, company policies, LEAN) is required, along with understanding the responsibility to maintain this familiarity and communicate concerns or improvement ideas. The position also involves performing other duties as necessary to support business objectives. The role requires the ability to move, push, or pull up to 50 pounds, bend, stoop, walk, stand, and work in a cold, wet, noisy, dusty environment for the entire shift. It involves repetitive motion and may include rotating through cold and hot areas of the plant. Standard personal protective equipment includes waterproof gloves, sleeves, and hearing protection.
