A food handler comes to work with diarrhea. What should the manager tell the food handler to do?
Answer: B. go home
Diarrhea is a symptom of several highly contagious foodborne illnesses. A food handler experiencing diarrhea must be immediately excluded from the operation to prevent the spread of pathogens to food and customers. The manager's primary responsibility is to send the employee home and report the illness to the regulatory authority if required.
What symptom requires a food handler to be excluded from the operation?
Answer: C. Jaundice
Jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and eyes, is a symptom of Hepatitis A, a highly contagious foodborne illness. Food handlers exhibiting jaundice must be immediately excluded from the operation and can only return with a written medical release from a doctor. This exclusion is critical to prevent widespread illness.
A food handler is observed not washing hands after handling raw chicken. What is the manager's first responsibility?
Answer: B. Immediately correct the behavior and retrain the employee
Managers must immediately correct unsafe food handling practices on the spot to prevent contamination, and follow up with retraining to ensure the employee understands the correct procedure.
What should food handlers do after leaving and returning to the prep area?
Answer: B. Wash hands
Handwashing is the most critical step in preventing the spread of foodborne illness. Food handlers must wash their hands thoroughly with soap and water every time they leave and return to the prep area. This practice removes pathogens that may have been picked up from other surfaces or activities, ensuring that hands are clean before handling food again and preventing cross-contamination.
