Day in the life

You arrive at your assembly cell ready to support the plant’s daily assembly operations. You review operator instructions for secondary operations, check your gauges, and start up the equipment. Throughout the shift, you run multiple assembly machines, verify quality against the Control Plan and Quality check sheet, keep the area organized with 5S, and keep pace with a fast-moving automotive line. When you spot something off, you notify the Team Leader or Supervisor, document it, and keep production flowing. Before wrap-up, you complete production reports, PPLH, scrap reports, and the 5S housekeeping sheet, then scan and print SAP product labels so the next process is set up for success.

  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area; practice 5S consistently.
  • Sustain the pace and rigor of an automotive production environment.
