At this busy time of the year, the kitchen is under pressure.
Here are a few tips to keep everything safe and under control
- If your menu is changing for Christmas, ensure you double-check your allergen sheets
- In this busy period, it’s more important than ever to stay on top of your kitchen daily records – this is your due diligence and defence if anyone reports illness after eating at your venue
- If you do receive an alleged food poisoning complaint, follow your food incident form, and if you don’t have one, get in contact with us!
