• You can document information clearly and accurately
• You’re an independent worker and quick on your feet
• You’re happy to work overtime when you need to

• You know what the acronym “HACCP” means (and have a working knowledge of how to implement and follow it)
• You can comply with company policies and procedures, GMPs, safety and quality standards, food safety measures, OSHA, and other safety regulations
• You’re okay with working in a hot and humid environment
• You can lift and move heavy and weirdly-shaped objects (up to 50 pounds)
• You have a high school diploma or GED
• You have training and 1-3 years in a field related to sanitation
• You can pass a pre-employment screening for drugs that could negatively affect job performance
