- 05. Do food handlers refrain from handling food while ill and have acceptable attire and hygiene?
- Staff member was observed to take raw burger patties from the cooler and place them on the cooktop. This same staff member then went to the deep fryer baskets and started handling a basket and placing foods in the basket before placing the basket in the fryer. When discussed with staff they explained that they were under the impression that as long as they handled the patties by the separating paper it was acceptable. It was explained to the staff that all items in this cooler are to be considered raw food and handwashing is required immediately after handling these items prior to touching anything else. Discussion went further to cover handling of any raw meat products (i.e. frozen chicken products from the freezer) and that hands need to be washed immediately after handling any raw meat products before touching any other items.*** Staff were directed to wash hands so handwashing practices could be reviewed and to immediately sanitize all touch surfaces that may be contaminated - especially the fryer baskets. ***Follow-up will be completed to ensure that practices are in place that ensure handwashing is being completed immediately after handling raw meat products.
