Hygienist Facility

The Hygienist is the site owner of hygiene and sanitation effectiveness. The role exists to prevent contamination before it happens, not to react after a problem is found. The Hygienist spends the majority of working time on the production and sanitation floor, verifies cleaning results first-hand, finds and removes harborage points, and leads Listeria and other microbiological investigations from the first hour.

Working closely with Sanitation, Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, and Quality, the Hygienist turns findings and data into lasting fixes in cleaning methods, equipment, and facility design.
