Operator to ensure all clients are informed that the sanitizing option MUST ALWAYS be selected on the dishwasher and that the cycle MUST NOT be interrupted in order to ensure the equipment, utensils, etc. are effectively cleaned and sanitized (Note: opening the dishwasher mid cycle allows the heat to escape and negates the sanitizing effect). Please include this information in your sanitation plan to be shared with your clients. Suggested including a picture of the button lights that are to be selected (hot water wash, sanitizing, hot dry). Please ensure your sanitation plan is onsite and available for members to review. This is a working document and should be available and updated as required. Please refer to the document Writing a Sanitation Plan and submit pages 3-4 for review and approval. Note: effective March 26, 2016 all food processors will be required to have their own food safety plan and sanitation plan. The Ministry of Health is developing a set of workbooks for operators on how to write a plan, along with templates and examples of plans for dozens of different food types. The first materials will be available in English, but translated versions will also be developed. The Ministry will also be holding training sessions around the province. Food processors will have the opportunity to learn more about the writing of plans and a chance for some practical application during these sessions. Dates for Interior Health sessions are still to be confirmed, but will include training in a number of the major centres. Materials will also be available on the Ministry's website, including a recorded training session (video). http://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/health/keeping-bc-healthy-safe/food-safety
