Safety Practices To Follow Under The Food Safety Guidelines

Post by Rencia » Fri Jan 29, 2016 6:01 pm

Hi,

The question is: Name 5 safety practices you must follow under the food safety guidelines.

My answer so far is:

- Food handlers must tell their supervisor if they may have contaminated food and must do everything they can to make sure they do not contaminate food.
- Food handlers must tell their supervisor if they have, or are carrying a disease that might be transmitted through food. Hepatitis A and illnesses caused by giardia, salmonella and campylobacter are examples of diseases that can be passed on through food and if they are suffering from diarrhoea, vomiting, a sore throat with fever, fever or jaundice unless they know their symptom or symptoms do not relate to a food-borne illness. Food handlers must tell their supervisor if they have any infected skin lesions or discharges from their ears, nose or eyes as these could contaminate food.
- Food handlers. - - Food handlers must wash their hands with soap and warm running water in the hand washing facilities provided and dry them thoroughly whenever there is any risk that they might contaminate food.
- Food handlers need to wear a protective gloves and apron to avoid cross contamination.
- Food handlers must not behave in ways that could cause food contamination. For example, they must not eat over unprotected food or smoke in food handling areas.

Can anyone please let me know if I am on the right track?

Thanks a lot
