Body removal jobs include positions like body removal technician, funeral director, and funeral home worker. At a small funeral home, the funeral director has a license to pick up bodies from various facilities, such as the medical examiner's office, an assisted living facility, a hospital, or another type of clinical facility where a person may die. Your duties and responsibilities differ depending on your specific position. If you are a body removal technician, you transport the deceased from the death scene to the funeral home or mortuary. As a funeral home director, you have additional responsibilities, such as helping the bereaved family deal with paperwork and funeral arrangements.
