Green Products Manufacturers

Work Environment

Products manufacturers work in offices and plants. They may work 40-hour workweeks during business hours, or they may work nights and weekends depending on their work shift. Some manufacturing employees travel for client meetings and plant inspections. Some may also travel for conferences, expos, workshops, and training programs. Manufacturing plants can be noisy, and production lines—with all their moving machinery—can be dangerous. To reduce the risk of injury, workers don protective earwear and other gear and take part in frequent safety training.
