• Supervise and schedule sanitation employees, ensuring adequate coverage for all shifts and priority areas.
• Train and mentor team members in safe and effective cleaning practices.
• Maintain accurate records of all sanitation activities, inspections, chemical concentrations, and ATP results.
• Communicate sanitation performance, gaps, and corrective actions to Quality and Operations leadership.
