    Study Notes

    Pest Control

    • Pesticides in foodservice should only be applied by a licensed pest control operator.

    Handwashing Facilities

    • Handwashing sinks must be supplied with potable (drinkable) water.
    • Must have hot and cold water, soap, a hand-drying method, and a garbage container.

    Sanitization Requirements

    • Walls do not require sanitization.
    • Food-contact surfaces must be clean and sanitized before switching between different food types.

    Cross-Connection and Backflow Prevention

    • Dropping a hose into a mop bucket creates a cross-connection.
    • To prevent backflow, sinks must have an air gap.

    Chemical Storage and Labeling

    • Containers used for cleaning substances should always be labeled with contents for safety.
    • Well-lit chemical storage areas are crucial for safety.

    Cleaning Schedules

    • Master cleaning schedules should detail what needs to be cleaned, when, by whom, and the methods used.

    Prevention of Hazards

    • Correct ventilation prevents grease and condensation buildup.
    • Actions taken during imminent health hazards may include immediate fixing or closing the operation.

    Garbage Disposal

    • Garbage cans should be cleaned away from food and utensils to maintain hygiene.

    Dishwashing Procedures

    • In a heat-sanitizing dishwasher, the final rinse must reach a minimum temperature of 180°F (82°C).
    • The first compartment of a three-compartment sink should contain wash water, and after scraping and washing, the third step is rinsing.

    Equipment Storage

    • Table-mounted equipment must be elevated at least 4 inches (10 cm) off the ground.
    • Mops should be hung on hooks between uses to ensure proper hygiene.

    Staff Training

    • Staff must be trained to adhere to the master cleaning schedule created by managers.

    Pest Denial
