The industry sector can be broken down into two main categories: technical occupations and engineering occupations.
Several sectors regulate the industrial environment: design and process engineering, production, maintenance, QHSE (quality, health, safety, environment) and logistics.
Maintenance covers two areas: the first is industrial (machines), the second concerns new works (buildings). These highly specific professions require special skills. Several specializations are possible: electrical, mechanical or automation.
Preventive maintenance prevents damage, while corrective maintenance fixes breakdowns. In both cases, the aim is to enable the equipment to maintain its production functions over the long term.
Maintenance operatives, automation engineers, maintenance team leaders and maintenance managers are essential to the smooth running of a maintenance department.
