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 V48 (Food storage) mean?

Accepted Answer

FOOD SAFETY RISK: Improperly stored food is vulnerable to contamination, temperature abuse, pest access, and cross-contamination. Unlabeled food cannot be date-tracked for safety. Food stored on floors is exposed to splash, pests, and cleaning chemicals. Improper FIFO rotation leads to expired food being served. Food stored near chemicals risks chemical contamination. Store all food: minimum 6 inches off floor, in food-grade containers with tight-fitting lids, properly labeled and dated, in appropriate temperature conditions. Follow FIFO rotation. Store raw meat below ready-to-eat food. Keep food away from chemicals, cleaning supplies, and personal items. Date-mark ready-to-eat TCS food — discard after 7 days.
