Manage any staff that you may have -- from hire to separation -- so they are part of a great team effort.
    • Be a Clean Guru -- ensure your team maintains high sanitation standards for the storeroom, walk-ins, refrigerators, freezers and loading dock area to be in compliance with health and safety regulations. Report any non-functioning equipment for repair to engineering ASAP.
