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

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.

What does Florida violation V03 (Employee health reporting) mean?

OUTBREAK ENABLER: Food workers who fail to report illness symptoms are the #1 cause of multi-victim outbreaks. Norovirus is shed in billions of viral particles per gram of stool — as few as 18 particles cause infection. One symptomatic worker can infect hundreds of customers before detection. CDC links 70% of Norovirus outbreaks to infected food handlers. Employees must immediately report: vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, sore throat with fever, infected wounds or boils. Must also report diagnosed illness with Salmonella Typhi, Shigella, E. coli O157:H7, Hepatitis A virus, or Norovirus. Person in charge must exclude or restrict employees per FDA Food Code guidelines.

What does Florida violation V06 (Handwashing facilities) mean?

HYGIENE INFRASTRUCTURE FAILURE: Without adequate handwashing facilities, proper hand hygiene is impossible. Studies show handwashing compliance drops to 5% when sinks are inaccessible or poorly equipped. No hot water means grease and biofilms remain on hands. No soap reduces bacterial removal from 99.9% to 25%. No towels means wet hands spread 1,000x more bacteria. Provide handwashing facilities with: hot and cold running water (minimum 100°F), soap in dispensers, single-use paper towels or air dryers, waste receptacle. Sinks must be accessible at all times — never blocked by equipment, supplies, or used for other purposes. Install handwashing signs in employee language(s).
