Wonderful work in warehouses
Managing the warehouse is a task fulfilled by you and your co-workers. As warehouse employee you take incoming goods from transporters. In synergy with other warehouse employees and order pickers you load trucks. And you unload the cargo of trucks. Certain goods like the ones with an expiry date require extra care, according to strict guidelines. You insert and confirm orders in the computer system for an updated administration. Incoming goods need to be labelled. You process these shipments back in the system. Your tasks in the warehouse are:
- Inspecting goods
- Loading and unloading shipments
- Entering orders into the computer
- Preparing orders and placing them in the right location
Energetic employees
Did you know an education is not important in the warehouse? Experience in warehouses and in using computers do make the work easier though. Your enthusiastic drive for work and your motivation are the most important factors. Now and then, the tasks require physical work. An energetic attitude makes the difference during your work. Why? Working ahead means staying on track. You have an eye for possible tasks lying around and you actively start doing those. Every day you have contact with suppliers and customers at the warehouse. That’s why you are socially friendly and easy around others.
