Heightened Food Safety Practices

Heightened Food Safety Practices involve stricter steps to prevent food contamination and ensure safety. This includes thorough cleaning of equipment and surfaces, proper handwashing, cooking foods to the right temperature, avoiding cross-contact between raw and cooked foods, and maintaining correct storage temperatures. These measures are implemented to reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses, especially during outbreaks or in sensitive environments like hospitals or large food operations. Essentially, it’s an enhanced level of attention and procedures designed to keep food safe from contamination throughout the entire process from farm to table.
