Chemical Packer

Post Apple Scientific inc is a chemical supplier and manufacturer that specializes in custom packaging. Located in the town of North East, PA and founded in 1977 Post Apple carries over 2,500 reagents and other laboratory items. Post Apple prides itself on maintaining a loyal customer base by meeting those customer needs with quality and efficiency.

Overview:
Post Apple Scientific inc is looking to hire a full time chemical packer. Chemical packers assist in down packing materials from bulk containers and filling orders. Working in our warehouse chemical packers work with the Warehouse Manager to maintain stock, clean, and prep materials for shipping. Chemical packers may also be required to help create chemical solutions according to company formulas. Other duties may be assigned, and our employees are expected to be flexible in their willingness to perform tasks.

To meet our customers’ needs many of our products are measured in metric units and repackaged into sale quantities. Employees will also be required to label and package products for shipping according to customer specifications. Chemical packers will be required to be able to use electric scales and balances. Fine motor skills are essential for packaging chemicals in precise amounts. Maintaining a clean workspace is necessary, therefore all employees are required to keep their work space and tools clean at all times.

Employees must also be able to climb stairs and navigate narrow aisle ways along with being on their feet for extended periods of time. Along with using the stairs, employees must be able to work at reasonable heights (i.e. Using mobile stairs to access items on shelves and warehouse mezzanines.) Spacial awareness is vital to ensure that containers containing chemical materials aren’t spilled.

Safety is a main priority at Post Apple. Some of the materials our employees handle are dangerous. To maintain the safety of everyone, proper PPE (personal protective equipment) is provided by Post Apple to employees and is required to be worn appropriately.
