The responsibility of a production supervisor is to oversee the production process and ensure that it is running smoothly and efficiently. This includes a wide range of tasks, such as: Planning and scheduling production: Production supervisors work with managers to develop production plans and schedules. They then assign tasks to employees and monitor their progress. Overseeing quality control: Production supervisors are responsible for ensuring that products meet quality standards. This may involve inspecting products for defects, conducting quality tests, and working with employees to identify and resolve quality issues. Managing inventory: Production supervisors need to ensure that there is enough inventory to meet production needs, but not so much that it becomes costly. This involves tracking inventory levels, placing orders, and coordinating with suppliers. Maintaining equipment: Production supervisors are responsible for ensuring that production equipment is in good working order. This may involve inspecting equipment for problems, scheduling maintenance, and working with maintenance technicians to resolve issues. Supervising employees: Production supervisors oversee the day-to-day work of production employees. They provide training and support, monitor performance, and address any problems that arise. Ensuring safety: Production supervisors are responsible for creating and maintaining a safe work environment. This includes developing and enforcing safety procedures, training employees on safety protocols, and responding to accidents and injuries. In addition to these general responsibilities, production supervisors may also have specific duties depending on the industry they work in. For example, a production supervisor in a food processing plant may be responsible for ensuring that food safety standards are met. A production supervisor in a manufacturing plant may be responsible for ensuring that products are manufactured according to specifications. Production supervisors play a vital role in the success of any production operation. By effectively managing the production process, they can help to ensure that products are produced efficiently and to a high standard of quality. #Cable #industry #powersector

It's clear that the food manufacturing Industry has had difficulty in attracting engineers, an interesting article in The Grocer recently highlighted the fact that it’s time for the sector to look at engineering through a new lens. If a potential engineering candidate has worked with an EDMS system previously and has seen the benefits, this could be viewed as a huge plus in the hiring process. This article is an insightful read for Engineering Managers and any specialist Engineering Recruiters such as myself.... #fmcgnews #engineeringrecruitment #foodmanufacturing https://lnkd.in/eajFJyMc

My recommendation on how to acclimatize in #QAQC food manufacturing operations by virtue of job change or transfer to another factory in same company (in no particular order)will be: 1️⃣Understand the process from end to end. Study the process flow chart and take note of any OPRPs and CCPs in the process. Now go to the line and compare flowchart versus onsite. 2️⃣Know your product(s). What type of food product is being manufactured, processed or packaged in the factory? Do you know the inherent ingredients in the bill of materials and their functionality? How many finished products are there? How many variants/flavours? How many SKUs? What are the quality requirements of the products by the consumer? What makes a product acceptable or unacceptable? What is the tolerance? 3️⃣Understand the available quality assurance and quality control programmes, tools/equipment in place. Take note of measurements, monitoring procedures, frequency of checks and the parties involved in each of these procedures. 4️⃣What laboratory analytical tests are to be conducted on the raw materials, intermediate product and finished products? If there is an in-house lab, you will need to understand what goes on there in details. 5️⃣Familiarise yourself with the machinery/equipment in the factory. Be friendly with the engineers and machine operators, they have a thing or two to teach you about the machines. Quality products can only be realized when machines are in good operating conditions. 6️⃣Understand the escalation procedure in event of nonconformity and the procedure for nonconforming product management. It's one thing to discover poor quality product, it's another thing to let it slip through your fingers and get to the market. Don't let that happen under your watch! 7️⃣Of course, documentation! The bedrock of quality assurance. Learn the documentation procedure in use in the company or factory. It may be overwhelming initially but you need to learn as fast as possible as management decision relies on data from documentation. Finally, always pay attention to details and strive for zero error in documentation. Hello #quality professionals, did I miss anything?
