No specific diploma is required to start as a sorter, but a vocational certificate (CAP) or diploma (BEP) in a field related to the environment, logistics, or waste management can be beneficial. On-the-job training is common and is complemented by specific instructions for the type of materials handled.
With experience, a sorter can progress to supervisory roles or become a team leader, managing sorting operations and coordinating the work of other sorters. Additional training in waste management, recycling, or logistics can facilitate this career advancement.
Temporary work as a sorter offers a wide range of experiences, allowing work in different environments and with various types of products or materials.
