Описание: What are the top 10 health code violations? Learn the most common violations inspectors find in restaurants — and how to avoid them for ServSafe and real kitchens.

Health inspectors cite the same violations again and again — and they’re exactly what the ServSafe exam tests you on.

The most common violations include:
Improper handwashing
Unsafe food storage (temps, order in cooler)
Cross-contamination
Poor personal hygiene
Improper cleaning and sanitizing
Unsafe cooling/reheating
Pest control issues
Unsafe chemical storage
Food contact surfaces not cleaned properly
