HR for Food & Beverage Manufacturing

Stay Compliant. Protect Workers. Strengthen Your Operations.

Nevada’s food and beverage manufacturing industry faces unique HR challenges, from maintaining OSHA safety standards and food-handling compliance to managing high turnover and seasonal workforces.

NAE helps you protect your employees while keeping your operations running smoothly.

Why HR Matters in Food & Beverage Manufacturing

  • Food Safety & OSHA Compliance: HR ensures workers complete training for HACCP, FDA, USDA, and OSHA requirements, tracking documentation to avoid costly violations.
  • Workforce Management: Managing large, multilingual crews across multiple shifts requires clear policies, scheduling, and wage/hour compliance under Nevada law.
  • Turnover & Retention: Entry-level roles often experience high churn. HR helps stabilize staffing through competitive pay, onboarding, and retention strategies.
  • Seasonal & Temporary Staff: Manufacturers frequently scale up during peak production. HR manages background checks, training, and safety orientation for temps.
  • Union Relations: Food manufacturing is often unionized, requiring skilled handling of grievances, collective bargaining, and employee communication.

➡️ Protect your workplace from risk. Conduct an HR audit to identify compliance gaps.
