Apart from merchandiser's job to stock the store, answer calls, take care of front end breaks among other things, we each received a cleaning list. Every week, a merchandiser is supposed to clean a different aisle. You should remove the pallets, sweep and mop under them, clean the steel, including the footplate of the steel, with a toothbrush. If you don't clean your aisle, they will write you up. We must also complete our OYI checks, scanning every bay for 2-3 aisles...checking every pallet in reserve and every product on the floor in that bay, ensuring that it is scanned into the system properly.
Where does the time come for us to complete these tasks when we're covering and taking care of everything else going on in the store? Is this company-wide, or just our store. I'm not asking for a pay raise or anything else, just when are we supposed to have time to do these things?
