Comments

***Lower temperature of quat sanitizer dispensed in the sanitizing sink in the meat department. Hot water will rapidly diminish the strength of the sanitizer. Ideal temperature is around 75F to 80F or 25c to 30c. ***Ensure the revised "Cleaning Standard" document for Meridian Meats adequately addresses "Accountability" to ensure cleaning procedures as outlined in the document are being followed. Meat tray storage now on bottom shelving below table the tumbler unit is located on. Deli cooler and underside of shelving cleaned. Soap container full at 3 compartment sink. Ensure staff keep an eye on soap and sanitizer levels as discussed with store Manager. Spilled food cleaned on floor under wire rack shelving. Tumbler unit (Top side) replaced.
