- Critical Other (Specify)
- Food handler manipulating raw meat in a water bath then handling raw prawns without washing hands and changing gloves. This is a cross contamination risk. Bloody water was able to get inside gloves. Taps would then be contaminated when the food handler washed hands, re-contaminating washed hands when turning off taps. Taps should be sanitized if contaminated. Another food handler used gloved hands contaminated by the same bloody water to touch other items in the kitchen.
- A greater awareness of cross contamination is required in the kitchen. Comments **Bowls of cooked pork on top of other bowls cooling at room temperature. Do not cover cooling food as this slows the cooling process and may result in growth of bacteria and foodborne illness. Do not use the back of a gloved hand to test temperature of a cooling food item. Use a sanitized probe thermometer to check the internal temperature. Ensure food cools at room temperature to 20C within no more than 2 hours before being placed uncovered in the walk-in cooler until it is 4C.
