You will contribute to quality, safety and customer satisfaction. Within the food sector, there are plenty of opportunities to develop yourself, both in skills and career opportunities. Euro Planit is happy to help you find a suitable job in this dynamic and growing sector.


What does a food production worker do?
As a production worker in the food sector, you will work at a production site where food is processed, prepared or packaged. You will be responsible for keeping the production process running smoothly. Your daily tasks may include:
- Weighing and checking ingredients

Working in shifts and as part of a team
Production workers in the food industry often work in shifts. This means you work at varying times: early in the morning, in the afternoon or at night. In return, you usually receive an attractive shift bonus on top of your regular salary. You work closely with colleagues and team leaders, where good cooperation and communication are essential for a smooth production process.
