The quat sanitizer solution in the 3 compartment sink was only 69F during inspection, it did not appear to be in active use but quat sanitizer solution is to be maintained at 75F or greater. The solution was dumped during inspection. It is recommended to wait to make sanitizer until the solution is needed for use and it should be discarded once dishes are finished; it is not necessary to have dish washing solutions in the sink ready for use at all times.

The employee health policy posted in the meat department is missing information. There is nothing about reporting an infected cut or wound with pustule boils or legions, also the illnesses that are required to be reported are not specific enough. Shigella, Norovirus, Salmonella typhi, Hepatitis A, and Shiga-toxin producing E. coli must be specifically referred to as reportable illnesses. 2013 Food Code has added Non-typhoidal Salmonella as a reportable illness which may be added to your policy but is not currently required by NC Food Code.
