kitchen hygiene

[Helen Truscott]

Dear All ,
I am conducting a small research project on cleaning needs in NSW Fire Service kitchens and infection control risks.
I would be interested to find out about suitable resources and sources of information / education or posters that others may have used in similar workplaces, specifically around use of dishcloths and sponges for washing up.

Regards

Hi Helen,

See ACIPC webpage

.
It’s all
about the toothbrush – Marija Juraja speaking on Breakfast Radio

. https://www.acipc.org.au/CMS/Uploads/file/TOOTHBRUSH%20190613.mp3

Maria may be able to assist, I recall in this radio interview she gave
advice in relation to kitchen wash cloths/dishcloths …she will probably
have a reference for the advice given re: kitchen cloths

In Victoria there is a food safety webpage and food safety guidelines some
of which are linked to legislative requirements depending on the premises
type . See text and links below

DHS Food safety program template for class 2 retail and food service
businesses, no. 1, version 3:

. “Use clean or disposable dishcloths – single-use paper towels are
better than cloths. Wash cloths in hot water and detergent after every use
and sanitise dishcloths regularly. Replace cloths regularly during each
shift”.
