Description:
MBC Group has recently hired two new qualified employees as Laboratory Technicians to work in the MBC Group Laboratory. We have significant external costs for environmental analysis that MBC Group wants to internalize as well as branch into forensic services. We need highly skilled staff to train on and deliver those services, and rely on financial aid to maintain our growth momentum. MBC Group also wants these techs to help research automation in hazmat analysis to better protect workers. This will replace tedious manual analysis so each technician can focus on more skilled lab work. Present analysis is manual but automated systems have been proven for similar tasks. The developed systems will be designed to meet regulatory requirements.
