Hygiene is not about looking clean during visits. It's daily discipline.
Admin-level hygiene checkpoints
- Staff grooming & PPE (hairnets, gloves, clean uniforms)
- Temperature logs for hot holding and cold storage
- Raw/cooked segregation with labeled zones
- Scheduled cleaning cycles
- Documentation that's updated, not backfilled
Quick vendor maturity signals
- A visible checklist board with signatures - Separate sinks for handwash and utensils - Proper waste segregation
True hygiene is boring in the best way—because it's consistently done.
