Request for locker & hand phone use policy in production area

Lockers are assigned to employees by QA or Supervisor (DO NOT take a locker unless it is assigned to you).

Locker inspections are conducted on a monthly basis of employees lockers to ensure that the level of cleanliness required for a food plant is met.

Quality Assurance inspects the lockers to ensure they are clean, there is no food, drinks or glass being stored. Employees can also not store uniforms, plant issued binders, tools, toolboxes, etc. in the lockers.  Employees are responsible to keep their own locker clean on a weekly basis, they will be emptied and cleaned annually. Footwear must also be kept clean prior to storing.

Cell phones can only be used in the smoking area, lunchroom and washroom if they are contained in a protective case. Only authorized cell phones are permitted in the production facility. They must be company issued and/or approved by Management.
