Businesses in food preparations and food services industries need to be sure that they follow the proper OSHA guidelines to protect the health and safety of their employees while those employees are at work. To help protect employees’ health and safety, many businesses have training programs that provide employees with proper food handling, preparation, and kitchen cleaning guidelines that can help to ensure that employees follow best practices and avoid injury.
There are certain guidelines that all employees should follow when preparing food or cleaning up any food preparation space. These guidelines help to ensure that employees handle food preparation tools safely, move throughout the kitchen space safely, and clean-up safely. Many food preparation and cleaning practices can be dangerous if done incorrectly.
The Restaurant Safety Kit comes complete with five important food preparation, clean-up, and workplace safety posters that remind employees of tips and hints that will help them to stay safe – no matter whether they are preparing food, interacting with the public, or cleaning up. These posters should be placed in visible areas throughout the workplace where employees can see them on a daily basis to be reminded of safe kitchen practices.
The posters in the Restaurant Safety Kit are fully laminated on both sides for improved durability and are printed in full color with diagrams so that the information is easy to understand for all employees.
Helpful information for employers regarding work-related injuries
If an employee is injured in your workplace for any reason the employee may be entitled to receive Workers’ Compensation benefits, unemployment benefits, and more. Employers need to report the injury using the appropriate reporting documents in order for employees to receive benefits. You may also be liable for the employee’s injuries, depending on the type of liability protection offered by your state and agreed to by your employees.
Furthermore, when an employee is injured in the workplace, the employer is required to report that injury to the appropriate state agency and may need to have the workplace inspected by OSHA regulators or inspectors.
