Why This Matters
CONTAMINATION CYCLE: Using handwash sink for dishes spreads grease and food particles, making hand cleaning ineffective. Staff avoid dirty sinks, reducing handwashing by 60%. Creates breeding ground for bacteria at the most critical hygiene point.
Code Requirements
STOP all non-handwashing use immediately. Handwash sinks for HANDS ONLY. Clean and sanitize sink completely. Post signage 'HANDWASHING ONLY'. Designate separate sinks for food prep and dishwashing. Retrain all staff.
