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 V10 (Approved food source) mean?

Accepted Answer

UNSAFE FOOD SOURCE: Food from unapproved sources bypasses USDA/FDA safety inspections, potentially harboring Listeria, Salmonella, E. coli O157:H7, parasites, or chemical contaminants. Uninspected meat may contain antibiotics, hormones, or prions (mad cow disease). Home-canned foods risk deadly Clostridium botulinum toxin. Wild-harvested shellfish may contain paralytic toxins. All food must come from approved, inspected sources. Maintain supplier documentation and invoices. Shellfish must have proper tags retained for 90 days. No home-prepared, home-canned, or uninspected foods. Wild game must be commercially processed. Verify supplier licenses and inspection status.

Question 6

What does Florida violation V53 (Outer openings protected) mean?

Accepted Answer

PEST ENTRY: Unprotected outer openings (doors, windows, vents) allow entry of flies, rodents, birds, and other pests. A single open door can admit hundreds of flies in minutes — each carrying 100+ pathogens. Gaps around doors allow mice (1/4 inch) and rats (1/2 inch) to enter. Birds nest in rafters, contaminating food with droppings carrying Salmonella and Histoplasma. Protect all outer openings: install self-closing doors, tight-fitting screens on windows and vents, air curtains at frequently used entrances, door sweeps on exterior doors. Seal gaps around pipes and utility penetrations. Keep doors closed when not in active use. Maintain screens in good repair — no holes or tears.
