Typical hazards & measures
- Food hygiene and cross-contamination — Separate raw/cooked food with colour-coded containers, sanitise prep zones between batches, and log fridge/freezer temperatures. Train staff in HACCP standards and handwashing between handling tasks.
- Customer illness or choking — Train staff in basic first aid, CPR, and choking response. Keep stocked kits visible and maintain emergency contacts. Assign staff to monitor queues/areas during busy times and log incidents.
- Portable generator hazards — Place generators outside in ventilated areas, fit CO detectors nearby, and use UN-approved fuel containers. Train staff in refuelling only when cool, maintain weekly logs, and keep extinguishers and spill kits accessible.
- Hot surfaces and burns — Guard hot plates and pans, mark “hot zones” visibly, and provide PPE gloves/aprons. Train staff to avoid overfilling pans, place hot items on stable surfaces, and keep first-aid kits stocked with burn gel.
- Fire from fryers, grills, or open flames — Fit Class F extinguishers, fire blankets, and suppression kits. Position cooking areas away from tent walls, clean grease daily, and train staff in emergency shutdown and fire evacuation procedures.
