In our warehouse operations, hand laborers and material movers work closely with material moving machine operators and material recording clerks.


The following are examples of types of hand laborers and material movers: 

Hand laborers and freight, stock, and material movers move materials to and from storage areas, loading docks, delivery trucks. Although their specific duties may vary, most of these movers, often called pickers, work in warehouses. Some workers retrieve products from storage and move them to loading areas. Other workers load and unload cargo from a truck. When moving a package, pickers keep track of the package number, sometimes with a hand-held scanner, to ensure proper delivery. Sometimes they open containers and sort the material.


Hand packers and packagers package a variety of materials by hand. They may label cartons, inspect items for defects, and keep records of items packed. Some of these workers pack materials for shipment and move them to a loading dock. Hand packers in grocery stores, also known as grocery baggers, bag groceries for customers at checkout.
