Clean with a nonabrasive all-purpose cleaner, using a sponge or cloth. Rinse with a sponge or cloth wrung from clean water; dry with a clean, soft cloth. Heavily soiled surfaces may require multiple cleanings or soaking in a solution of nonabrasive, all-purpose cleaner and warm water.
Cleaning needs to be carried out in two stages. First use a cleaning product to remove visible dirt from surfaces and equipment, and rinse. Then disinfect them using the correct dilution and contact time for the disinfectant, after rinse with fresh clean water if required.
To properly clean a surface use warm water and soap. To correctly disinfect and area you can use a diluted household bleach solution, an alcohol-based solution with at least 70% alcohol, household cleaners, or you can create your own bleach solution.
What are the 4 basic sanitation practices? ✓Proper personal hygiene, including frequent hand and arm washing and covering cuts ✓Proper cleaning and sanitizing of all food contact surfaces and utensils ✓Good basic housekeeping and maintenance ✓Food storage for the proper time and at safe temperatures.
Clean with water, soap, and scrubbing. Sanitizing reduces germs to levels public health codes or regulations consider safe. Sanitizing is done with weaker bleach solutions or sanitizing sprays. Clean surfaces before you sanitize them.
An example of a cleaning protocol is a document that lists duties that must be completed daily/hourly, and that can be ticked when completed.
For general cleaning use a moist cloth. Cooking fat, finger marks, rust, juice, tea, coffee may be wiped away with diluted washing up liquid. If necessary, leave for a while to allow the cleaner to soak the stain. Old stains may require washing powder or bleach, but take care and do not repeat too often.
To start, scrape and rinse surfaces with water to remove stuck on, or loose food, grease, dirt, or other substances. Then wash the surface with water and a soap/cleaner/detergent solution. Next, thoroughly rinse the surface with clean water (removing any remaining substances including dust, food debris and detergent).
Examples include scrubbing pots and pans, washing down hoods with degreaser, sweeping floors, wiping tables, and dusting light fixtures. Sanitizing reduces the number of pathogens on a clean surface to safe levels using chemicals; it helps inhibit growth of harmful bacteria. Sanitizing isn't intended to kill viruses.
Good personal hygiene is about keeping your body clean. It also helps to protect you from getting infections such as gastroenteritis, colds and flu and COVID-19. Washing your hands with soap removes germs that can make you ill.

In this lesson, Debby Gerber will explain the four main cleaning methods you need to know: dusting, spray cleaning and damp wiping, wet wiping, and disinfecting.
Top to bottom. As we clean, dirt and dust is likely to fall, by cleaning from top to bottom we remove as much dirt and dust as we can and avoid moving dirt into clean areas. 4. Clean to dirty. By saving the dirtiest areas to last we avoid moving dirt and dust into cleaner areas.
Disinfecting uses chemicals (disinfectants) to kill germs on surfaces and objects. Some common disinfectants are bleach and alcohol solutions. You usually need to leave the disinfectant on the surfaces and objects for a certain period of time to kill the germs.
The 5 F's, that infectious diseases are transmitted from one person to another are through food, finger, fluid, fomite, and faeces. A major public health concern is that infectious diseases affect children more frequently.
Hygiene activities
Take a shower every day, wearing shower sandals if using a shared bathroom. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth to prevent the spread of germs. Clean up dishes, throw away scraps, and properly store food leftovers that could develop foodborne bacteria or attract bugs and rodents.
Have we cross contaminated? Did we wash our hands long enough? To stay safe while cooking dinner, refer to the four C's of food safety: clean, contain, cook and chill.
