308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
Observation:
1) The low temperature dishwasher had 0ppm [Cl2] during the rinse cycle. The dishwasher is NOT able to kill germs as there is no chlorine, and this could cause people to become ill.
2) The 2-compartment sink by the cook station has no running hot water exiting the faucet. It was found that the hot water supply was turned off (under the sink) as the hot water tap is broken (tap can't shut off the hot water exiting the faucet). Hot water is a requirement to properly wash hands and/or prepare foods.
Corrective Action(s):
1) Immediately stop using the dishwasher and call a repair person to fix the dishwasher. If cookware needs to be washed, soak them in Quats sanitizer for 2 minutes after being run through the dishwasher. Chlorine test strips shall be used to test the dishwasher daily to ensure the chlorine level is correct. During the inspection, the Bar Manager called a repair person (Ecolab) and informed staff to stop using the dishwasher until it was fixed.
**Correction date: Today**
2) Immediately repair or replace the broken hot water tap so that it can turn the hot water on and off, and staff are able to wash their hands properly.
