The Guide should be consulted if assistance with interpretation of the food safety standards is required. The assessment is set up as a checklist. In some cases an item will be supported with a list in italics of areas where compliance is required. It might not be possible to observe all the areas in a single inspection. Despite the presence of a list each item is a single issue of compliance. inspection are: inadequate cooling & cold holding temperatures; food prepared ahead of planned service; inadequate hot holding temperatures; poor personal hygiene & infected food handlers; inadequate reheating and inadequate cleaning of equipment.

  • 5.Protection from likely contamination includes appropriately covering food so that it is protected from potential contamination sources and includes keeping ready to eat foods separated from raw foods.

  • 7.Potentially hazardous food is food that has to be kept at certain temperatures to minimize the growth of any pathogenic micro-organisms that may be present in the food or to prevent the formation of toxins in the food. Examples of potentially hazardous food includes meat, seafood, dairy and foods such as salads and some cut fruits.

  • 7.Temperature control means maintaining potentially hazardous food at a temperature of: a.5oC or below or b.60oC or above or c.another temperature if the food business demonstrates that maintenance of the food at this temperature for the period of time for which it will be maintained, will not adversely affect the microbiological safety of the food.

  • 9.A food business must when cooling cooked potentially hazardous food, cool the food: a.within two hours - from 60oC to 21oC; and b.within a further four hours - from 21oC to 5oC.

  • 10.A food business must when reheating previously cooked and cooled potentially hazardous food to hold it hot, use a process that rapidly heats the food to a temperature of 60oC or above.

Adequate supply of potable water means water that is acceptable for human consumption and available at an adequate volume, pressure and temperature for hand washing, cleaning and food processing requirements. 33.
