General Laborer – Production & Material Handling
Accurate Paper Box is seeking a dependable General Laborer to support our manufacturing and warehouse operations. The primary responsibility is removing excess paperboard from die-cut carton sheets before they move to the folder-gluer department. This position will also assist with material handling, inventory, shipping and receiving, and other general production duties as needed.
Responsibilities
- Strip excess paperboard from die-cut carton sheets.
- Use a handheld pneumatic tool, similar to a small jackhammer, to remove scrap material.
- Separate, stack, and move finished cartons without damaging product.
- Assist with material handling, inventory, warehouse, shipping, and receiving activities.
- Move raw materials and finished goods throughout the facility as needed.
- Maintain a clean and safe work area.
- Assist with other general labor and production duties as assigned.
- Follow all safety and quality procedures.
Qualifications
- Manufacturing, warehouse, or general labor experience preferred, but not required.
- Hand truck, pallet jack, and/or forklift experience preferred; training is available.
- Material handling, warehouse, inventory management, shipping, and receiving experience preferred.
- Comfortable using handheld tools and performing physical work.
- Able to stand for extended periods and lift, bend, reach, push, and pull throughout the shift.
- Dependable, punctual, and able to maintain a steady work pace.
- Able to follow instructions and work safely around production equipment.
Primary Job Function
After cartons are cut from large sheets of paperboard, excess material remains around them. This position primarily uses an air-powered handheld stripping tool to break away and remove that material so the finished cartons can move to folding and gluing.
No previous carton stripping experience is required. Training is provided.
Compensation: $18.00 - $20.00 per hour
