  • Operating high-speed production lines for bacon and gammon products.
  • Packing, weighing, and labeling finished meat products according to strict specifications.
  • Performing quality control checks to ensure all products meet Danish Crown's premium standards.
  • Assisting with the "expedition" and sorting of goods for transport.
• Maintenance Cleaning (Morning & Afternoon Shifts):
  • Maintaining a clean workspace during active production to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Regularly clearing debris, emptying waste bins, and wiping down touchpoints.
  • Disinfecting common areas, canteens, and changing rooms throughout the day.
