HEAT TREAT LEAD
The use of Leads at PCC Schlosser is an approved option to assist Supervisors/Managers in performing daily routines. These “assignments” are intended to help in those situations where there is not adequate coverage by a supervisor, yet a full-time supervisor is not warranted.
Lead positions must be approved in advance of offering the assignment, by the General Manager, Operations Manager and Human Resources Manager.
Lead assignments generally do not include external job postings and may not include internal job postings, job descriptions, or other formal selection processes. They are “assigned” positions and may be offered and retracted by the supervisor, at will, based on performance, business conditions, and/or changing needs of the department/plant.
