Check all staff at shift start. Confirm personal appearance, hand hygiene, and health fitness before anyone handles food.
Staff hygiene is the first line of defence against food contamination. This pre-shift checklist helps managers confirm that all kitchen and front-of-house staff meet hygiene standards before handling food — covering personal appearance, hand hygiene, health fitness, and workplace behaviour as part of your food safety management system.
Complete at the start of each shift. Any staff member who fails a check should correct the issue before entering the food preparation area. Record illness exclusions as part of your Safer Food, Better Business records.
