Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation: Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized.
Observed multiple floor mats obstructing the compartments of the 3 compartment sink. Staff stated that 3 comp sink is used to wash rinse, sanitize and air dry large pots and containers that do not fit in the mechanical dishwasher. Staff confirmed that 3 comp sink is not being used due to an issue with the floor drain. Multiple dirty pots and containers were noted sitting next to 3 comp sink. Staff stated that the pre-rinse sink was currently being used to wash the equipment and utensils. Staff stated that a technician was going to arrive at 4pm to inspect.
Health Rationale:
Equipment and utensils not properly washed, rinsed, sanitized and air dried, increase the risk of pathogen survival, leading to potential contamination of food prepared with the utensils and potential foodborne illness when the contaminated food is consumed.
Corrective Action:
Ensure the technician services the floor drain such that the 3 compartment sink can be used. Ensure that the sink is cleaned and sanitized after removing the floor mats prior to use. Ensure the dishes are properly washed, rinsed, sanitized and air dried.
