A site decision - with a complication
Equipment items going 'walking' is a problem that's well-known to many large production sites with multiple shift rotations.
The Dispensary area at Newark had this challenge too. If items hadn't gone walking, they would just be left lying around - risking product contamination and audit non-conformities.
Emma, the Dispensary Section Manager, was first to take action in what would turn out to be a site-wide improvement project. It seemed like shadow boards were the obvious answer - but there was a complication.
As part of food safety initiatives, one of the key aims across Bakkavor's Newark factory was to stop permanently attaching items to walls.
