How to develop a cleaning program
• Cleaning: Process of removing
food and other types of dirt froma surface, such as a countertop orplate.
• Sanitizing: Process of reducing thenumber of microorganisms on aclean surface to safe levels.
• Detergents: Cleaners designed to
penetrate and soften dirt to helpremove it from a surface.
KEY TERMS12.0
• Concentration: The amount ofsanitizer to water measured inparts per million (ppm). Theconcentration of sanitizer affectsthe effectiveness of the sanitizersolution.
• Degreasers: Alkaline detergents,
often called degreasers, that containa grease-dissolving agent.
• Water hardness: The amount ofminerals in water. Water hardnessaffects how well a sanitizer works.
KEY TERMS12.0
• Delimers: Used on mineral deposits and other soils that alkaline
cleaners cannot remove, such as scale, rust, and tarnish.• Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS):
Sheets supplied by the chemicalmanufacturer listing the chemicaland its common names, itspotential physical and healthhazards, information about usingand handling it safely, and otherimportant information. OSHArequires employers to store thesesheets so they are accessible tostaff.
• Abrasive cleaners: Cleaners
containing a scouring agent usedto scrub off hard-to-remove dirt.They may scratch some surfaces.
KEY TERMS12.0
General-purpose detergents are mildly alkaline cleaners that remove fresh dirt from floors, walls, ceilings, prep surfaces, and most equipment and utensils.
Heavy-duty detergents are highly alkaline
cleaners that remove wax, aged or dried dirt, and baked-on grease.

Heavy-duty detergents are highly alkaline cleaners that remove wax, aged or dried dirt, and baked-on grease.
Degreasers Degreasers are detergents that contain a grease-
dissolving agent. These cleaners work well in areas where grease has
been burned on.
Correct cleaners for specific tasks12.1
Delimers Delimers are used on mineral deposits and other dirt that other
cleaners cannot remove. They are often used to remove scale in dishwashing machines
and on steam tables. Follow the instructions carefully and use delimers with caution.
Abrasive Cleaners Abrasive cleaners contain a scouring agent that helps scrub
hard-to-remove dirt. These cleaners are often used to remove baked-on food in pots
and pans. Use abrasives with caution because they can scratch surfaces.
Correct cleaners for specific tasks12.1
Sanitizing reduces pathogens on a surface to safe levels. Food-contact surfaces must be sanitized after they have been
cleaned and rinsed. This can be done by using heat or chemicals.
Heat Sanitizing Items must be soaked in hot water for at least 30 seconds. The water must be at least 171°F (77°C). You may need to install a heating device to maintain this
temperature. You may also use a high-temperature dishwasher.
Approved sanitizers including chlorine, iodine, and quats
12.2
SANITIZING
• Three common types of chemical sanitizers are: o chlorineo iodineo quaternary ammonium compounds, or quats
Chemical sanitizers are regulated by state and federal environmental protection agencies (EPAs).
Tableware, utensils, and equipment can be sanitized by:
o soaking them in a chemical sanitizing solutiono rinsing, swabbing, or spraying them with sanitizing solutiono using detergent-sanitizer blends to clean then sanitize
Approved sanitizers including chlorine, iodine, and quats
12.2
CHEMICAL SANITIZING
•Several factors influence the effectiveness of chemical sanitizers.
•The most critical include: o concentrationo water temperatureo contact timeo water hardnesso pH
Factors affecting the efficiency of sanitizers
12.3
SANITIZER EFFECTIVENESS
Concentration
Sanitizer solution is a mix of chemical sanitizer and water.
The concentration of this mix—the amount of sanitizer to water—is critical.• Too little sanitizer may make the solution weak and useless.• Too much sanitizer may make the solution too strong and unsafe.
o It can also leave a bad taste on items or corrode metal.
• Concentration is measured in parts per million (ppm). • To check the concentration of a sanitizer solution, use a test kit made for
the sanitizer being used.• Hard water, food bits, and leftover detergent can reduce the solution’s
effectiveness.• Change the solution when it looks dirty or its concentration is too low. • Check the concentration often.
Factors affecting the efficiency of sanitizers
12.3
Temperature The water in sanitizing solution must be the correcttemperature. Follow manufacturers’ recommendations.
Contact time For a sanitizer solution to kill pathogens, it must make
contact with the object being sanitized for a specific amount of time. Different requirements must be followed for each type
of sanitizer. Follow the manufacturers’ recommendations.
Factors affecting the efficiency of sanitizers
12.3
Water hardnessWater hardness is the amount of minerals in your water. • Find out what your water hardness is from your
municipality. • Work with your supplier to identify the correct amount of
sanitizer to use for your water.
pH Find out what the pH of your water is from your
municipality. Work with your supplier to find out the correct amount of
sanitizer to use for your water.
Factors affecting the efficiency of sanitizers
12.3
• All surfaces must be cleaned and rinsed.
• This includes walls, storage shelves, and garbage containers.
• However, any surface that touches food, such as knives, stockpots, cutting boards, or prep tables, must be cleaned and sanitized.

HOW AND WHEN TO CLEAN AND SANITIZE
To clean and sanitize a surface, follow these steps:
How to clean and sanitize food-contact surfaces
12.4
•All food-contact surfaces need to be cleaned and sanitized at these times:
• After they are used
• Before food handlers start working with a
different type of food
• Any time food handlers are interrupted during a
task and the items being used may have been contaminated
• After four hours if items are in constant use
Required frequency for cleaning and sanitizing food-contact surfaces
12.5
WHEN TO CLEAN AND SANITIZE
•There are two methods used by operations to wash dishes:
Machine dishwashing
Manual dishwashing
Correct machine-dishwashing procedures
12.6
DISHWASHING
Tableware and utensils are often cleaned and sanitizedin a dishwashing machine.
The effectiveness of your dishwashing program will depend on thefollowing factors:
• Well-planned layout in the dishwashing area, including a scraping andsoaking area and enough space for both dirty and clean items
• Sufficient water supply, especially hot water
• Separate area for cleaning pots and pans
• Devices that indicate water pressure and temperature of the wash andrinse cycles
• Protected storage areas for clean tableware and utensils
• Staff trained to operate and maintain the equipment and use thecorrect chemicals
Correct machine-dishwashing procedures
12.6
MACHINE DISHWASHING
High-temperature machines use hot water to clean and sanitize. If the water is not hot enough, items will not be
sanitized. If the water is too hot, it can bake food onto the
items. The dishwasher must have a built-in thermometer which checks water temperature at the manifold.
Correct machine-dishwashing procedures
12.6
HIGH-TEMPERATURE MACHINES
Chemical-sanitizing machines can clean
and sanitize at much lower temperatures. Different sanitizers require different
temperatures, so follow the manufacturer’s dishwashing guidelines.
Items washed and rinsed at these lower temperatures may take longer to air-dry.
Correct machine-dishwashing procedures
12.6
CHEMICAL-SANITIZING MACHINES
Operate your dishwasher according to the manufacturer’srecommendations, and keep it in good repair. However, no matter whattype of machine you use, you should follow these guidelines.
Cleanliness Clean the machine as often as needed, checking it at least once a day. Clear spray nozzles of food and foreign objects. Remove mineral deposits when needed. Fill tanks with clean water, and make sure detergent and sanitizer dispensers are filled.
Preparation Scrape, rinse, or soak items before washing.
Presoak items with dried-on food.
Correct machine-dishwashing procedures
12.6
DISHWASHING MACHINE OPERATION
Loading Use the correct dish racks. Load them so the water spray will reach all surfaces, as shown in the photo at left. Never overload dish racks.
Air-drying Air-dry all items. Never use a towel to dry items. You could re-contaminate them.
Monitoring Check water temperature, pressure, and sanitizing levels. Take appropriate corrective action if necessary. Use heat tape or test strips to monitor the temperature of the sanitizing rinse. You can also use a maximum registering thermometer to do it.
Correct machine-dishwashing procedures
12.6
DISHWASHING MACHINE OPERATION
Operations often use a three-compartment sink to clean and sanitize large Items.
Follow these procedures:
• Clean and sanitize each sink and drain board.
• Fill the first sink with detergent and water. The water temperature must be at
least 110˚F (43˚C). Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Fill the second sink with clean water. This is not necessary if items will
be spray-rinsed instead of being dipped.
• Fill the third sink with water and sanitizer to the correct concentration.
Hot water can be used as an alternative.
• Provide a clock with a second hand. This will let food handlers time how
long items have been in the sanitizer.

Nonfood-contact surfaces must be cleaned regularly. Examples include:
• Floors• Ceilings• Equipment exteriors• Restrooms • Walls
• Regular cleaning prevents dust, dirt, and food residue from building up.
How to clean nonfood-contact surfaces12.8
NONFOOD-CONTACT SURFACES
Many of the chemicals used in the operation can be hazardous, especiallyif they are used the wrong way. To reduce your risk, you should only usechemicals that are approved for use in a foodservice operation. You should also follow these guidelines:
Storage and labeling Store chemicals in their original containers away
from food and prep areas. Separate by spacing or partitioning. If chemicals are transferred to a new container, the label on that container must list the common name of the chemical.
Disposal When throwing out chemicals, follow the instructions on thelabel and any requirements from your local regulatory authority.
Storage and disposal requirements for chemicals
12.9
USING FOODSERVICE CHEMICALS
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has requirements for using chemicals. OSHA requires chemical manufacturers and suppliers to provide a
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each hazardous chemical they sell.
Storage and disposal requirements for chemicals
12.9
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS
•An MSDS contains the following information about the chemical:
• Safe use and handling
• Physical, health, fire, and reactivity hazards
• Precautions
• Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to wear
when using the chemical
• First-aid information and steps to take in an emergency
• Manufacturer’s name, address, and phone number
• Preparation date of MSDS
• Hazardous ingredients and identity information

12.9
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS
Once utensils, tableware, and equipment have been cleaned and sanitized,they must be stored in a way that will protect them from contamination. Follow these guidelines:
• Storage Store tableware and utensils at least six inches (15 centimeters)
off the floor. Protect them from dirt and moisture.
• Storage surfacesClean and sanitize drawers and shelves before storingclean items.
• Glasses and flatwareStore glasses and cups upside down on a clean and
sanitized shelf or rack. Store flatware and utensils with handlesup so staff can then pick them up without touching food-contact surfaces.
• Trays and carts Clean and sanitize trays and carts used to carry cleantableware and utensils. Check them daily, and clean as often as needed.
• Stationary equipment Keep the food-contact surfaces of stationary equipment covered until ready for use.

STORING TABLEWARE AND EQUIPMENT
Keeping your operation clean means using the correct tools, supplies, and storage to prevent contamination.
Many of the chemicals you will use are hazardous, so you also have to know how to handle them to prevent injury. For all of your cleaning efforts to come together, you need a master cleaning schedule. Making this schedule work also means training and monitoring your staff to be sure they can follow it.

CLEANING THE PREMISES
A clean and sanitary operation is a foundation for a successful food safety management system. You can keep your operation in this condition with an effective cleaning program. To develop your program, first identify what the operation needs. Then create a master cleaning schedule. Train staff to clean equipment andsurfaces correctly and monitor the program to ensure that it is effective.

DEVELOPING A CLEANING PROGRAM
Identify cleaning needs using the following guidelines:
• Review the facility to identify all surfaces, tools, and equipment thatneed cleaning.
• Look at how cleaning is currently done. Get input from staff. Ask them how and why they clean a certain way. Find out which
procedures can be improved.
• Estimate the time and skills needed for each task. Some jobs may be done more efficiently by two or more people. Others might require an outside contractor. Determine cleaning frequency as well.
