It’s OK to Work in a Crematorium

Question:

May a Catholic work in a crematorium?

Answer:

Yes, a Catholic may work in a crematorium. Catholics may also have their earthly remains cremated, provided they don’t do so as an expression of disbelief in the resurrection of the dead that will take place at the Final Judgment.
