6 Foot Kitchen Training Food Production May 2020

Food Production (60 minutes) LEARNING OUTCOMES: After this Topic, learners will have an understanding of: Module I: 10 minutes How to properly take the temperature of team members as they § arrive for work. Module II: 10 Minutes The importance of keeping your distance. § Module III: 10 minutes Why the receiving person is the only one allowed in storage areas. § Module IV: 10 minutes How to properly thaw frozen food for production. § Module V: 10 minutes The importance of food safety inspections § Quiz: 10 Minutes

Module I How to properly take the temperature of team members (10 minutes) § Taking temperatures is safest with a non- contact thermometer like a handheld infrared seen here. § Point the thermometer at the forehead. § Hold it about two inches from the forehead. § A healthy person will have a temperature of 98.6 Fahrenheit or 37 degrees Celsius. § If your temperature is 100.4 F or more you should stay home.

Module II Keep Your Distance (10 minutes) • When workers are too close together the possibility of infection is increased. • Spreading out the work over a longer period of time keeps fewer people in the kitchen at the same time. • Prep can be done overnight or early morning and supplies can be stocked in work stations before production crew arrives. • Using the cooking stations for prep helps spread out the workforce. • Mark a six foot semi circle on the floor around each work station and directional arrows.

Module III Why the receiving person is the only one allowed in storage. (10 minutes) • The receiving person’s duties. • Why it is important to only have one person in any of the storage areas. • How to reduce the possibility of cross contamination by reducing the number of people touching anything. • The importance of cleaning and sanitizing. • How to reduce the spread of disease by decreasing the number of touches any items have. • Why it is important to, wherever possible, prop doors open to reduce the chance of anyone having to touch a door handle or knob.

Module IV How to properly thaw frozen food (10 minutes) • How to thaw food under refrigeration. The best and preferred method for the best quality product. • How to thaw food in a microwave oven. • How to thaw food as part of the cooking process. • How to thaw food under cold running water. The least preferred method.

Module V The importance of Food Safety Inspections (15 minutes) § The importance of keeping all inspection logs up to date including, refrigerator, freezer, sanitizer solution, warming cabinets, dishwashers and receiving. § What the weekly self inspection is and what it covers. § What the monthly self-inspection is and what it covers. § What the annual “Comprehensive Food Safety Self-Inspection” is and what it covers. § What other food safety materials are available and where to find them.
