by Costas Christodoulides, from the Community

Streamline nightly close with a kitchen end of shift report. This checklist helps staff verify hood condition, empty trash, clean floors and work surfaces, sanitize stations, and tidy refrigerators and freezers. Capture equipment status, chemical storage compliance, product labeling and expiry dates, FIFO arrangement, and supplier orders placed. Attach photos of fridges, ovens, worktops, dishwashing station, and order screenshots to document standards and support audits.
