Pest Awareness
As a food factory it is very important that we work in hygienic and pest free conditions. If you see signs of pests in or around the factory, tell your team leader or manager quickly.
A pest is a creature that is harmful to humans or farm animals, or that interferes with our home or work activities.
Why is pest control so important? Pests in food premises spread germs, spoil food with droppings, make the place a bad place to work and ruin the company reputation. They can even get the business closed down.
What can I do about pests?
- Keep doors and windows closed to stop them coming inside
- Tell your supervisor quickly when you see signs of pests
- Keep your work area clean and tidy
- Tell your work mates if you see bad conditions
