Duties and description

Original English description
  • Hand-Harvesting Strawberries: Each worker must place a pre-printed numeric sticker to each box. The numeric sticker roll will be assigned to the worker by the supervisor. Packed boxes will not be accepted without the sticker. Workers will move down the assigned rows with picking cart, picking all ripe berries, grading berries in the field while harvesting, taking care to sort and pack containers by size, shape, color, quality and quantity as directed by the supervisor. Each worker must pick the plants clean of all ripe fruit, sort and pack all good berries into specified containers within the box, according to very high-quality standards set forth in the company food safety policy and standard operation procedures. Bad berries will be packed or disposed of as determined by the supervisor. Each worker shall handle berries carefully to avoid bruising. Bruising will weaken the berry. Each worker is expected to move with the crew from row to row to maintain the efficiency level. Upon completion of each box picked, the worker will take his/her completed box to the crate shed to be viewed for grade, palletized and receive credit on his/her picking badge. Any containers that are over or under packed will be returned to the worker for repacking. Upon competition of the assigned row, the worker will move to the next vacant row to be picked. Harvester may receive disciplinary notice if quality becomes an issue. Workers must pick at least 6 flats of 8-1-pound clamshells of strawberries per hour. Workers are required to lift at least 75 pounds as the chep blue pallets needed to be stacked as the boxes are loaded onto these pallets and can weight up to 75 pounds. Workers will clean weeds as needed in the rows they will plant which also requires for workers to use lots of strength pushing and pulling.
