English term or phrase: Packhouse staff
Came across this in an istallation manual for a sorting machine. The text requires that "packhouse staff" are to receive adequate training in its handling and use.
I've opted for "funcionários de armazém" since 'warehouse' was the closest match I could get to 'packhouse'.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
