Why is Cleaning and Sanitation so important?
35% of foodborne illness cases attributed to poor sanitation.
• 19% Poor personnel Hygiene
• 16% contaminated equipment/environment

Bilmar Foods1998• Frankfurters/Hot Dogs• Listeria monocytogenes• 80 cases 21 deaths (6 still births)• Recalled $37,478,586.4 lbs. of product• Direct loss: $76 million• Loss Sales: $200 million• Litigation: $5 million
Pilgrim’s Pride 2002• Deli Meats• Listeria monocytogenes• Recalled 30, 864,716.7 lbs. of product• 46 cases 10 deaths (3 still births)• $100 million loss
John Tudor and Sons 2005• Deli meats sold• Escherichia Coli O157• 150 cases of food poisoning• 1 death of a 5 year old
The CDC estimates that each year 48 million people get sick from a foodborne illness, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000
die.
All or most could have been avoided by practicing proper cleaning and sanitation and good hygiene.
Results of Poor Cleaning and Sanitizing
Where do I start?
Cleaning is the process of removing food and other types of soil from a surface, such as a dish, glass, prep tables or equipment.
Cleaning is accomplished using a cleaning agent that removes food, soil, rust stains, minerals, or other deposits.
Cleaning products can be:DegreasersAbrasives
All purpose cleanersDetergents

What is Sanitizing? Sanitizing is the process of reducing the number of
microorganisms that are on a properly cleaned surface to a safe level. A safe level is defined as a 99.999% reduction
of the number of disease microorganisms that are of public health importance.
Sanitizing is accomplished by using either:Heat
Radiationchemicals
Sanitation Hot Spots• COOLER/FREEZER DOOR HANDLES
• MEAT SLICER• TABLE TOP OR STAND UP MIXER
• FAN COVERS IN COOLER• CARTS (ESPECIALLY THE HANDLES WITH RIDGES OR CREVICES)
• SEASONING CONTAINERS• OVEN AND RANGE TOP CONTROLLER KNOBS
• OVEN HANDLES• PROFFING/HEAT BOXES
• ICE SCOOPS• STORAGE PANS WITH LIDS STORED IN THEM
• CAN OPENERS• UTENSILS DRAWERS
• KNIVE RACKS HANDLES AND BLADES• SCOOPS LEFT IN BENS
• DOOR HANDLES TO BATHROOMS AND ENTRANCES• INSIDE MICROWAVE AND DOOR HANDLE
• SLIME BUILD UP IN THE JUICE/DRINK DISPENSER NOZZLE• LEFT OVER WATER IN STEAM TABLE
Two common sanitizers are Chlorine and QUAT.•Chlorine Based Sanitizers:
• Used almost exclusively for ware washing.• The positive is that it’s an instant kill. The negative is that it is unstable and “flashes off” rendering it useless soon after
mixing a solution.• Due to its flash off, it must be tested frequently because even in 15 minutes it can no longer be within the health
department limits. This is why it is mainly used in dish machines, as they have a controlled process that kills the germs and flushes out on each cycle.
• Another negative is that it will rust equipment, eat away at metals and damage clothing or fabric. It also dries out the skin and is harsh in many different ways, which is another reason it is mainly used in dish machines.
• It also has an obnoxious smell.•QUAT Based Sanitizers:
• A product that is based on Quaternary Ammonium (QA).• Used for all other areas in the restaurant.• Has a 10‐second kill, meaning it must be in contact for 10 seconds in order to the kill the germs, but it is steady and
consistent.• It is forever stable and doesn’t lose its potency for killing germs over time no matter the frequency it’s being used at.• It is not a harsh chemical in any way shape or form.• It is very light in odor.

Concentrations Are Important•It’s important to work with a chemical vendor to ensure sanitizers are used within a system and that they have proper concentrations all the time.
•Without a system, employees will attempt to measure very precise and small ratios without the proper equipment making it difficult to dilute at the proper ratio.
•This is an issue because too little sanitizer can result in unacceptable efficacy, while too much sanitizer can yield residues that do not meet standards.
It is imperative that food servicedepartments have a culture of cleaning
and sanitation, rather than a cleaning and sanitation program.
Frank Yianno’s
How To Implement A Culture of Cleaning and Sanitizing
1. Do a thorough inspection of your entire kitchen from top to bottom2. Have meetings with your staff and go over results, and standards of cleaning. Use policy
and procedure manual to educate staff.3. Explain to your staff the risk and dangers of not being clean and sanitary. 4. Have daily cleaning task for every shift and position that covers the entire kitchen.5. Have heavy cleaning projects on week ends. Oven, Walk‐n, Freezer, Racks6. Do weekly inspections and give the Administrator a copy and place in binder.7. Test your staff on Serve Safe procedures. 8. Train all new employees on cleaning and sanitation standards before they even get
on the floor.9. Monitor daily and hold individuals and staff accountable.10. Do not hold your staff to a standard they have never seen you display.11. Praise your staff when they display good cleaning/sanitation habits’.12. Show your staff the possible bacteria’s and results of them that can happen if
short cuts are taken.

Proper Dishwasher and 3 Compartment Sink Monitoring
• Temperatures and ppm’s must be checked a minimum of 3x’s a day before each meals dirty dishes are washed.
• Monitoring of the temperature logs should take place every day.• New staff should be trained/orientated on ppm’s and taking
temperatures before they ever get on the floor.• Back up supplies of test strips should be on hand and accessible at
all times • All dishes and utensils should be visibly inspected before putting
them up.• Staff needs to visibly verify that dishwasher chemicals are actually
being pumped into the dishwasher. If corrective action needs to take place.
• Do you have a policy in place if the dishwasher breaks?• All sanitized plate plates wear, glass wear and utensils need to be
store on or in a sanitized area.
