FOOD SAFETY TOOLKIT:

Sanitation Checklists

One way to maintain a clean and sanitary facility is to develop checklists where compliance/ non-compliance with desirable food handling practices is identified. 

Each area in a food service facility has unique cleaning and sanitizing requirements. The following sample checklists have been developed based on the equipment that is often found and the activities that are performed in the areas specified.  They provide examples of how managers can establish a food safety system that will help them comply with established safety standards.  Local regulatory agencies should be contacted for current requirements.

Sample Checklists:  

Preparation Areas

Storage Areas - Dry & Refrigerated

Dish Room

Service Areas

Food Service Personnel
