Sanitizer is dispensing strong at sinks but is probably ok for this operation. Sanitizer in spray bottles for work surfaces 500 + ppm - Both Quats. dilute this down to 200 to 400 ppm range. Leave sinks at higher concentration, although tested sanitizer sink at approx. 200 to 400 ppm.

Cooling units at 4 C.
Freezers below -18 C.

Make sure to fill bowls of deep fried foods for lunch rush and not the larger containers. Go to coolers more often. Make sure that left-overs left at room temperature are discarded after lunch and dinner rushes and do not go back into cooler for use again.

Make sure to keep raw proteins on lowest shelves only.
