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

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.

What does Florida violation V25 (Allergen awareness) mean?

ALLERGIC REACTIONS: Food allergies affect 32 million Americans. Allergic reactions cause 30,000 emergency room visits and 150-200 deaths annually in the US. Major allergens (milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans, sesame) can cause anaphylaxis within minutes of exposure. Cross-contact with trace amounts can be fatal. Demonstrate allergen awareness: identify the major food allergens, prevent cross-contact during storage and preparation, accurately communicate ingredient information to customers, train all food handlers on allergen management. Use separate equipment for allergen-free preparation. Clean and sanitize surfaces between allergen and non-allergen food preparation.
