This job flys by every night cuz there so much to do in so little time. You will never get bored. It’s also very satisfying work.

I work as a sanitation lead where i command a crew of about 2-8 workers every night. We clean 3 lines of production that being mixers and machines for 3 separate areas. pizza, bread, and cookies. The work scedual is from 9pm-5:30am. I am in charge of making sure my crew is safely cleaning and sanitizing the equipment. I record our temp workers hours. I make sure my team is on time and ready for the shift. Constant slippery floors from the water and soap we use to clean. Lifting 10lbs-75lbs worth of dough and flour with each dump of a waste bucket( which is about 35 of them around each station.) I sweat like a pig, and more sore than kanker...every night. My first language is english but i am surrounded by people who only speak spanish or understand a few words of english, so i in return learned spanish in about 4 months so i could accommodate the workers who didn't understand english. For almost a year and a half I do all this and WAY more for 14$ an hour. Yes i am unhappy and i feel underappreciated.

I start working as a sanitation worker Monday. This was informative to say the least. My hours are 9pm-5:30am .

I am a sanitation engineer in Ontario, nothing makes me more mad than spending 8 hours or more doing this job and having the qc or cfia come through with their flashlight to pre-op and have NO gloves on and go around touching the equipment (2:22 in the video). Even though hand washing procedures are strict, I do not agree with them doing this.

Very insightful video. I liked how thorough everyone is during this process. I've been considering opening up a meat packing plant and this gives me the right preparation to maintain a clean and sanitized plant. Thank you for sharing!

I work on behalf of Koch foods as safety tech, I’m glad the guy mentioned lock out tag out.

I am a production/sanitation supervisor at a small meat plant in NC. We do production for 7hrs then clean up for only two hrs. When I first started I didn't see any problem in it because I was not experienced. Now I am experienced and I tried to tell the owners that we need more time to clean because we can't break everything down and clean/scrub then sanitize in only two hours. We have it looking good in only two hrs but it's far from where its suppose to be. He is just worried about the production part because of the money and not that much of the cleaning until we get a NR because of the lack of time we have to clean. We only have two shifts day shift and night shift. I supervise night shift and make sure we put out enough meat to keep them happy and make sure the cleaning is half way decent with only two hours. The night shift inspector doesn't stay to see the end of the cleaning so it doesn't get checked until the morning I can't stay at this company for long

I'm a mechanical engineer that actually designs and helps QA check food packaging and processing equipment. I enjoy videos like this that work to convey the efforts this industry takes to conform to safety practices and guidelines.

Thank you! I've always wondered what steps a factory took to clean its machinery. 👍

I did sanitation before. And now I work for Foam-it. Great company and great people. Each and everyone of them..

Interesting video, thanks. I have watched a lot of food processing videos recently and always wondered how and when they clean those machines as it looks like they can get pretty slimy and messy pretty quick.

Shoutouts to Bill Clinton for the narration

Very useful video. I am teaching a Quality course at Conestoga College and I will share the video with the class to make them understand the need for proper machine cleaning. This was the reason for the Listeriosis outbreak in Maple leaf Foods in 2008 in Canada : improper slicing machine cleaning

wow i always wondered how that was done. thank you.

I started working in a job like this in March 2019 I’m still there and I love it lots of OT but the chemicals do irritate my skin still

I'm a sanitation worker at vantage foods in Belleville and we literally start at 10 but day people leave sometimes 10:30 or 11pm now the crazy thing is the job I work at isn't actually 8 hours.. it's basically 4 or 5 hours to clean not 8.. the day and afternoon schedules are really messed up that us night crew have to rush constantly to get it done which often leads to staff missing breaks because not everyone can be that quick and still have a clean area by the end of the night and miss debris or meat pieces, over spray and fat on the lines and other departments. we get paid for 8 hours but in reality it's 5 hours and 30 minutes

I love working sanitation. I been working at bonduelle/readypac for about three months. I'm already training people at certain areas of sanitation. I find it easy work, so far. Pretty much the same as this video.... I don't really take too much apart, mostly everything else. I like it ALOT. The hours are perfect for me. So now , when a robbery, or shooting happens next, I have a alibi when they come and try to say I'm doing something bad. Cuz I'm not. Bonduelle/ readypac in irwindale, California, is a good place to work. I hope to get hired soon.

whats that sanitised water include exactly ?

Is sanitation at foster poultry farms only overnight?

Good to know!

This guys moustache needs a hair net bro

This is great to know what’s behind the scenes at these meat plants where our meat products end up in our local grocery stores to know it’s safe eating from the hard working sanitary team

2:21 did she just touch the machinery with her bare hands?? Kinda defeats the purpose don't ya think??

Is the equipment dry before swabbing?

This was, by far, the worst job(industrial sanitation worker) I have ever had. For 14.75(early 2020,Southeast USA), we were subjected to the worst conditions of the factory workforce while being compensated the worst. You had to deal with wear/tear our bodies, mandatory 12+ hours SAT/SUN's, and it is really easy to tangle yourself up in danger if you're not attentive for the majority the time in this job. Not surprising the only people who weren't filtered by the ridiculous turnover were middle-aged workers who could barely speak English and had little chance seeking something with comparable pay. I pray and am thankful nearly every week for being fortunate enough to have dodged some possibly life-altering close-calls from that job. This experience really helps during the mid-term/finals crunch. I'd suggest just being a trades apprentice if you have the grit to do this, you at least develop something invaluable along with your arthritis.

i work as sanitation worker in meat plant in Estonia but its way different how the work is done here, shift is the same 10pm to 6am

truly amazing!

Which product am I use in cleaning of slaughterhouse please

I work for the neighborhood market. And I clean the meat wall at night.

Were I work this is a high care line in a vegetarian factory. One good cleaner can clean two of these lines (they're in the same room) in less than four hours, if it's just one line that has ran it'll take about 2 hours. On paper it's an 8 hour clean. Production run throughout our 12 hour night shift so there's always that to consider. Management are terrible right now though - never take a job offer from Atalian Servest, we tuped over from The Hygiene Group and they were much better.

Video has not mentioned which detergent base we have to use and sanitation chemicals. Nowadays there are many are there no need of hot water. Only simple and warm water is needed .

Worked in a meat factory for a time, was in cutting and packing. We cleaned the room after every shift

How well I remember. Egg processing plant and then a job at the fanny farmer chocalate factory. Had to learn how to push water to the small circle drains as opppsed to the longer "walk over" drains. Back then it was just water hoses, not the newer type equipment to work with.

We never use lock out tag out at my sanitation job

Great Video Could you tell me what is the name of used disinfectant in your video

Nice Work👍

I work as a leading hand cleaner at a slaughterhouse in Australia and I can confirm we have a similar process, anyone who thinks it’s an easy job though is an idiot. It’s a hard job and a stressful one at most, long hours, hazardous chemicals and strict guidelines do take its toll

At 2:24, the equipment has several spots of rust on it. Is that allowed?

I use to work at maple leaf 8 houre production and about 8 or 9 hours clean

Cleaner than Mr. Bubble .lol.This was a good hygiene video.

"We are *still* not done cleaning." Oh man I can feel his pain haha

what do bakery sanitation do?

What's the best way to clean the pipes

This pleases me

Got interview k&n pourty any info on how to sound smart doing this kind of work

How are you doing. I am really not trying to dis. in any way, but are you not contaminating the machinery by foaming the machines before the walls, floors, and drains? From first to last it would be the walls, the floors/drains, then finally was the machinery. spraying the machinery first would be an issue due to the off splash from the walls and floors. waiting for reply. thank you.

I am a sanitation guy I like this video this is what I do everyday

I signed up for a job through indeed to clean in their warehouse and thought it was the plants they harvested. lol. ohhh!

They clean their equipments better than my bedroom

They do about...... 75% of what they say they do

Been working in a salmon plant as a sanitation technician (fancy title for this job). I actually love it. We are about 11-12 people working on our team. We're split into zones, so that you have your own little area to take care of in the massive facility. Some start earlier than others - depending on which area you are doing and if there is anything extraordinary going on - but we all get around 10 hours of work under the belt on average. We usually work from the early evening into the early morning. Think roughly 6PM to around 4AM. Of those 10ish hours, we usually have three 1 hour breaks. They can be longer or shorter depending on how your day is going. In essence, if you're ahead of the curve for whatever reason, you can take longer breaks. While on our break, we're served wonderful food in the canteen, free of charge. Take all you want. I love this work because of the workplace. The company takes very good care of its workers, and due to the size and significance of said company, the overall conditions for workers are nothing short of excellent. While working, I shut my brain off and listen to hours and hours of music and podcasts while minding my own business. It's a very stressfree job because when you get used to the job, it's very, since it's very routine. You know what you're doing every day. The hourly pay increases the later it gets. So ideally you want to start as late as possible and finish at 6AM when the first daytime workers start showing up. On average, if we round the numbers, I get paid around 30 USD every hour. A bit lower if I start early and a bit higher if I work more hours later (after midnight). Keep in mind that this is in Scandinavia, so I'm not sure how it is elsewhere.

John Butts should have narrated the video in the same way, that he sounded in the beginning and the end. He sounded exhausted lol.

All Stores Please Lower the price of all Military and Local for all Brands of Sanitation Products and Accessories and Production Cost Now That's too much $$ The Whole World Now 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you

FSQR Tech for a beef plant and I do the pre op for fabrication

I hate third shift when you don’t have to work it’s hard to fall asleep at night

I wish I saw your video before I went to work at ajimoto food industry. With their inadequate training I got a chemical burn on the second day and let go on the third . They got upset when I told them I needed medical attention which they never offered , I had third degree burns on my wrist from washing the machine underneath and the chemical dripping on my cloth gloves my daughter took a picture of it . I thought that u had to have eye protection and chemical gloves for this foaming not latex gloves

The information I most wanted to know isn't in this video. The products are described only as "soap" and "sanitizer." There's no indication of what the USDA requires, as far as cleaning steps and possible options for cleaning products.

This man’s name iconic 😂😂😂

I'm a first shift mechanic at a meat factory and pssi cleans fairly well but I do see the things they miss like the underside of tables and other things it's pretty gross what you can find

I spend all day spaying/shoveling guts and feathers in the heat and occasionally I go outside and shovel/spray chicken shit. On the brightside, I get to smoke while I work

So is sanitation all about cleaning

I been working in sanitation at kraft heinz for 13 years.....

I need a job there ?

COP takes a lot of time and effort.

John Butts Sanitary vid😂😂

I have doing this Job a several years ago. Must say that, it was so disguisting. Humidity was so high all the time when you working. And you must be wear a heavy duty raingear and long Rubber gloves and of course you have a Rubber boots. That worksuit was something terrible to wear. If you need a take weight out of your body, that is wery good Job for these meaning. Never again. 😄
