Study Notes

Employee Conduct and Hygiene

  • Employees cannot simultaneously prepare meals and eat, which helps maintain hygiene.
  • Hand washing should occur at designated sinks, not prep sinks, to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Jewelry restrictions include allowing only plain metal rings, like wedding bands, to ensure food safety.

Hand Washing Guidelines

  • Employees must scrub hands thoroughly for 10-15 seconds, ensuring cleanliness and reducing contamination risks.
  • Cuts, burns, or sores on fingers should be protected with an impermeable bandage and a single-use glove to prevent contamination.
  • Hand sinks must be well-stocked with necessary supplies to avoid inspection violations.

Break and Cleaning Protocols

  • Employees are required to wash hands after taking breaks to maintain hygiene standards.
  • Hands should never be wiped or dried on clothing, such as pants or aprons, to avoid transferring germs.

Common Causes and Precautions Against Foodborne Illness

  • Research indicates that poor personal hygiene, cross-contamination, and improper time-temperature control are major causes of foodborne illnesses.
  • Employees must wash hands in various situations, including between tasks, after using the restroom, and after handling garbage, to prevent contamination.

Sick Employee Policy

  • Employees who are ill should immediately inform a manager or supervisor instead of attempting to work.

Preventative Measures for Safety
