Downloads: 20+

Use this digital checklist to run daily kitchen food safety inspections across personal hygiene, food preparation and handling, hot and cold holding, receiving and storage, cleaning and sanitizing, and pest control. Verify handwashing, hair restraints, glove use, and illness exclusion. Check thawing, cooking with calibrated thermometers, cooling, and holding at safe temperatures like 140 F hot and 41 F cold. Monitor fridge and freezer logs, labeling, dating, and FIFO. Confirm three compartment sink setup, sanitizer concentration, air drying, and clean hoods and filters. Inspect garbage areas, doors, and evidence of pests, and record corrective actions. Add photos and notes, assign actions with due dates, capture a digital signature, and export reports.
