#21
MAJOR
HOT AND COLD RUNNING WATER AVAILABLE
Why This Matters
Without hot water, dishes cannot be sanitized and hands cannot be properly washed. Allows survival of viruses and bacteria that cause foodborne illness.
What Was Observed
Measured hot water at 115F at the 2-compartment sink in the warewash room. Measured hot water at 100F at the mop sink. Measured hot water at 107F at the food preparation sink upstairs. Provide hot water of 120F to all sinks.
CA Retail Food Code: Section 114192
#6
MAJOR
ADEQUATE HAND WASHING FACILITIES; SUPPLIED AND ACCESSIBLE
Why This Matters
Missing handwashing supplies forces employees to skip handwashing. Studies show only 31% of workers wash hands properly when supplies are inadequate. Spreads norovirus to hundreds.
What Was Observed
Observed hand soap being dispensed from a squeeze bottle at the handwash sink upstairs. Provide soap from a dispenser (it does not need to be wall mounted) at all handwash sinks.
