Work Environment
SUPS production is performed in an ISO Class 7 cleanroom environment. Powder free gloves, face masks, hairnets, cleanroom suits (“bunny suits”) and shoe covers must be worn. Shorts, loose or baggy clothing is not permitted. Makeup, hair styling products, soiled, fuzzy or frayed clothing must not be worn into the cleanroom. Because smokers continue to shed thousands of smoke particles even hours after smoking a cigarette and these particles will damage our products, only nonsmokers are permitted to enter or work in the cleanroom. As a result, the successful candidate must be a nonsmoker.
