Question 4

What does Florida violation V02 (Employee health policy) mean?

Accepted Answer

DISEASE TRANSMISSION: Without a written employee health policy, sick food workers transmit Norovirus (20 million US cases/year), Hepatitis A (causes liver failure), Salmonella, Shigella, and E. coli O157:H7. CDC estimates 40% of restaurant outbreaks involve ill food workers. A single infected employee can contaminate food for thousands of customers. Maintain written employee health policy addressing: reporting of symptoms (vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, sore throat with fever), diagnosed illnesses (Norovirus, Hepatitis A, Salmonella, Shigella, E. coli), exclusion and restriction criteria, and return-to-work requirements. Train all employees on policy at hiring and annually.

Question 5

What does Florida violation V08 (Proper hand/arm washing) mean?

Accepted Answer

TECHNIQUE FAILURE: Improper handwashing technique leaves pathogens on hands even when a handwashing attempt is made. Studies show 95% of people wash hands incorrectly — most don't scrub for 20 seconds or miss fingertips, thumbs, and between fingers. Incomplete washing creates a false sense of security while still transferring E. coli, Norovirus, and Salmonella to food. Correct technique requires: wet hands with clean warm water, apply soap, lather and scrub for 20+ seconds covering all surfaces including fingertips/nails/between fingers/back of hands, rinse thoroughly, dry with single-use towel. Use towel to turn off faucet. Do NOT use hand sanitizer as substitute for handwashing.

Question 6

What does Florida violation V41 (Toilet facilities) mean?

Accepted Answer

HYGIENE INFRASTRUCTURE: Inadequate toilet facilities discourage proper restroom use and handwashing by employees. Lack of supplies (toilet paper, soap, towels) prevents proper hygiene. Non-functioning toilets force employees to delay bathroom breaks, increasing contamination risk. Self-closing doors prevent airborne contamination from reaching food areas. Provide adequate, clean toilet facilities: properly functioning toilets, toilet paper, self-closing doors, handwashing sink with hot/cold water, soap, paper towels. Maintain cleanliness throughout the day. Ensure facilities are accessible to employees at all times. Post handwashing signs. Facilities must comply with ADA requirements.
