Yes, there are several steps you can take to ensure the safety of your food business despite any noncompliance. These include implementing a detailed HACCP plan (hazard analysis and critical control points) with measurable steps to mitigate the risks of food-borne illnesses; thoroughly training staff in food handling and safety protocols; regularly testing water supplies for safety; regularly inspecting premises for signs of hazards or contamination; ensuring that properly tagged, secure ingredients are being used in preparation and cooking processes; disposing of any unwrapped ready-to-eat products after three days from receipt rather than putting them on the menu; adhering to rules about staff cleanliness and use of protective equipment like masks, aprons, gloves etc.; keeping up with regular quality assurance inspections by authorized officers or employees trained in inspection protocols; routinely monitoring equipment for signs of malfunctions or cross-contamination; taking corrective measures swiftly when errors happen rather than covering them up through tampering with proof materials (like date labels). It is also worth consulting a legal expert if needed to ensure legal compliance.

Yes! You should develop a written food safety plan to ensure compliance and mitigate any food safety hazards. The plan should identify each critical control point in your operation, define procedures to prevent or eliminate potential Foodborne illness hazards, outline testing methods for evaluating sanitization levels, and list processes to implement corrective actions in the event of non-compliance.
