I. INTRODUCTION
Purpose of the fieldtrip
Background information of the establishment
II. DISCUSSION
A. Establishment Construction and Lay-out
Location
Is the establishment located in areas which are
free from objectionable odors, smoke and
other contaminants and are not subject to
flooding?
Roadways
Are roadways and areas serving the
establishment which are within boundaries or
in its immediate vicinity of hard paved
surface suitable for wheeled traffic? Are
provisions made for adequate draining and
allow for cleaning?
Buildings and Facilities
Are these of sound construction and
maintained in good repair?
Size
Is adequate working space provided to allow
for satisfactory performance of all operations?
Lay-out and Design
Does it permit easy and adequate cleaning and
facilitate proper supervision and food
hygiene?
Are buildings and facilities designed to
prevent the entrance and harboring of pests
and the entry of environmental contaminants
such as smoke, dust, etc?
Are buildings and facilities designed to
provided separation, by partition, location or
other effective means, between those
operations which may cause contamination?
Are buildings and facilities designed to
facilitate hygienic operations by means of a
regulated flow in the process from the arrival
of the raw materials at the premises to the
finished product? Do these provide
appropriate temperature conditions for the
process and the product?
Floors, Walls, Ceilings
Are these non-permeable, non-toxic, dust-
proof, washable, easy to clean and well-
drained?
Windows
Are windows and other openings constructed
so as to avoid accumulation of dirt and those
which open fitted with screens? Are internal
window sills, if present, sloped to prevent
their use as shelves?
Doors
Do these have smooth, non-absorbent
surfaces and where appropriate, self-closing
and close-fitting?
In food-handling areas, are all overhead
structures and fittings installed in such a
manner as to avoid contamination directly or
indirectly of food and raw materials by
condensation and drip and to avoid hampering
cleaning operations?
Are living quarters, toilets and areas where
animals are kept completely separated from
and do not open directly on to food handling
areas?
Is the establishment so designed that access
can be controlled?
B. Sanitary Facilities and Control
Water Supply
Is ample supply of potable water available
with adequate pressure and of suitable
temperature? Are there adequate facilities for
its storage, where necessary and distribution
and with adequate protection against
contamination?
Is non-potable water used for steam
production, refrigeration, fire control and
other similar purposes not connected with
food, carried in completely separate lines,
identifiable by color, and with no cross
connection with or back-siphonage into the
system carrying potable water?
Effluent and Water Disposal
Does an existing efficient effluent and waste
disposal water system exist in the
establishment? Is this kept in good order and
repair? Are all effluent lines (including sewer
systems) large enough to carry peak loads and
constructed as to avoid contamination of
potable water supplies?
