Assessment Questions:
Checkpoint 1
Question 1: Drag the correct application to the relevant component of the cleaning process?
The act of cleaning is very subjective and may be understood in a variety of ways. When spending for a commercial
dishwasher, it is essential to have a solid understanding that there are a number of components that, to varied
degrees, contribute to the desired end. Four primary aspects go into cleaning process along with their application
includes
Contact time: is perhaps the most difficult part of any cleaning process that is applied in all the facets of cleaning.
It may determine the time that the product or the item would be influenced towards the mechanical action, chemical
action like the detergent and the thermal action.
Chemical: The impact that chemistry has on each aspect of house cleaning is a very complicated one. Not only does
this pertain to the detergents that are used, but also the chemical make-up of the water that is used makes a
difference, and this is true regardless of the item that has to be cleaned. This may include detergent which is
underestimated in mechanical washing and next is water which is used for washing.
Temperature: We are all aware of the impact that temperature has on our lives and how radically the dynamics
may shift in response to changes in temperature, whether those changes be positive or negative. Naturally, the same
is true for cleaning, and more specifically for washing things using machines. It play main role to remove the soil,
cleaning, safety and machinery.
Mechanical: Not only does the process of cleaning have a relationship to the washing machine itself, but it also has
a relationship to the goods that need to be cleaned. When it comes to cleanliness, cleaning crystal glassware and
smokehouse carts need two very different approaches. The amount of clothing and other items that may be washed
in a washing machine determines its capacity as well as its size. One thing that they all have in common, however,
is that their primary purpose is to provide the necessary mechanical movement for cleaning an object.
Question 2: Describe the properties and application of the following cleaning products?
2. Detergent
A chemical known as a detergent is one that is used in the process of cleaning. In many ways, detergent is similar
to soap; nevertheless, it is more potent and dissolves more thoroughly in water. Detergents are very effective and
specialized cleaners that can remove grime, oils, and grease from surfaces like clothes and dishes.
3. Abrasives
Abrasives are types of cleansers that include microscopic mineral particles that, when combined with water,
provide a scouring action that loosens and eliminates filth that is firmly adhered to a surface. Cleaning products
that include abrasives function by increasing the agitation of the surface being cleaned and providing physical
scrubbing force.
4. Degreasers
Degreasers are potent cleaning solutions that are meant to remove filth, oil, muck, and other impurities that are
resistant to conventional cleaning methods. They are used to degrease surfaces and items. The majority of
degreasers that are used regularly are based on water, although the more powerful types incorporate powerful
chemical solvents. A degreaser is a kind of cleaner that is formulated to remove contaminants such as grease, oils,
cutting fluids, corrosion inhibitors, handling soils, fingerprints, and other types of pollution that are frequent in
assembly, stamping, and other types of metal production in refineries, motor repair shops, aviation hangars, and
factories.
5. Acid cleaners
Acidic cleansers are effective for a broad variety of jobs and may be applied in a variety of ways to get the desired
results. They are effective in removing tarnished surfaces, stains caused by hard water and food, inorganic salts,
and stains from food. Make use of them on concrete, masonry, and metal surfaces. They also have the ability to
neutralize alkali, making them valuable for protecting metal against alkaline corrosion and discolouration.
Manual cleaning and sanitizing: Surfaces, tools, and utensils are manually cleaned and sanitized. Clean and sanitize the sink
and any surfaces you'll be using before you start. Everything you need to do the necessary cleaning and sanitizing chores should
be available at your station, including: Garbage cans for trash and drainage racks for cleaning and sanitizing chemicals
Depending on the sanitizing technique you choose, manual cleaning and sanitizing involves six or seven steps. It entails:
eliminating food leftovers, grease, and dirt, cleaning using the proper cleaning solution (detergent, for example), sanitizing
using hot water or a chemical sanitizer and Be cautious not to burn or scald your hands when executing the hot water sanitizing
approach and make sure the object is thoroughly submerged in hot water for the necessary amount of time.
Mechanical cleaning and sanitizing: Utilizing a dishwasher or other automated cleaning equipment is part of mechanical
cleaning and sanitizing. Dishware, utensils, glassware, and tiny pieces of kitchen equipment are the goods that mechanical
dishwashers are used for most commonly. A mix of human and mechanical cleaning and sanitizing is used in the majority of
food operations. While some machines sanitize using a high-temperature rinse, others utilize a chemical sanitizer. The
procedures are comparable to manual washing and sanitizing if utilizing a mechanical dishwasher to clean and sanitize objects.
Before filling the machine, you should scrape and rinse as much food residue as you can. Avoid overloading the machine to
avoid improper cleaning of the products and additional wear and strain on the equipment.
Clean in place cleaning and sanitizing: Certain kitchen appliances are designed to be "cleaned in place." If an object is too big
or heavy to transport, clean-in-place cleaning and sanitizing is usually done. For instance: equipment that make soft serve ice
cream, Coca-Cola machines, espresso makers, Typically, these machines are built with pipes or other devices that enable
thorough cleaning of the equipment. To remove dirt and soiling and get rid of germs, hot water, detergent, and sanitizer are
flushed through the machine. To prevent causing harm to the equipment or contaminating food or drinks with strong chemicals
that might make someone ill, always adhere to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Question 5: What are the essential details which must be listed in a Safety Data Sheet (SDS)?
Information such as the qualities of each chemical, the physical, health, and environmental health concerns associated with the
chemical, protective measures, and safety precautions for handling, storing, and transporting the chemical are included in the
SDS. Information such as the qualities of each chemical, the physical, health, and environmental health concerns associated
with the chemical, protective measures, and safety precautions for handling, storing, and transporting the chemical are included
in the SDS. The information that is included in the SDS must be written in English, however it is permitted to also be written in
other languages.
Question 6: What will you do in the event of an accident involving chemicals? How could you obtain appropriate
information for first aid procedures?
Checkpoint 2
Question 7: Provide a description for use for each of the following types of cleaning equipment?
2. Cleaning cloths
It is recommended to use a normal cycle for tough and soiled garments, while the permanent press setting may
handle an ordinary load without any problems. Fabrics that are lacey or loosely woven should be washed on the
gentle cycle. When washing whites, use hot water; when washing other loads, use warm water; and when washing
bright colors, use cold water. A piece of fabric that is designed to be used for cleaning; more precisely, a cotton
fabric that has a rough and spongy feel and is woven with the assistance of two needle-bars.
3. Scourers
For the purpose of cleaning problematic things and/or surfaces, scourers may be found in a wide range of styles
and constructed of a number of materials. One example of a distinction that can be made between the various
kinds of scourers is whether or not they are abrasive. Scourers with an abrasive surface are harsh to the touch and
have the ability to scrape surfaces while also removing harder problems.
Question 8: Provide 5 examples for kitchen surfaces, food preparation and storage areas which need to be
cleaned and sanitised in a commercial kitchen to ensure food safety?
```````
Question 9: What are the requirements for effective pest control measures including reporting procedures in
food premises?
It is essential that food storage places and containers be pest-proof, that spills be cleaned up immediately, that standing water be
removed, that garbage be placed in pest-proof containers, and that storage rooms be kept clean. The food and shelter provided
by food production facilities attract a wide variety of pest species, which may infiltrate the food supply and production facilities
at various locations and contaminate surfaces, materials, equipment, and food items. The following maintains pest control:
putting into practice an integrated pest management system (IPM) under the direction of a qualified individual;
Inspection of arriving items, including trucks, packing, raw materials, and additives; Food stores and containers should be pest-
proof, spills should be cleaned up immediately, standing water should be removed, garbage should be placed in pest-proof
containers, and storage places should be kept clean. Keeping pests out by doing routine inspections and maintenance on
buildings to stop them from entering via windows, drains, vents, screens, doors, pipelines, roofs, etc.;
Elimination of vegetation and waste from the surrounding area; monitoring, identification, reporting, and documenting of pests;
and adopting adequate pest control methods and recording actions in accordance with regulations and best practices; Keeping
pesticides in a safe, regulated environment to avoid contamination.
Question 10: Describe the requirements for inspecting the following types of cleaning equipment before use?
2. Brooms
They may be used for hygienic cleaning, or they can be used to clean food items like vegetables, fruit,
mushrooms, or shellfish. Both of these uses are possible. When it comes to maintaining proper hygiene and
cleanliness in a kitchen, restaurant, hotel, or workplace, having a broom that is up to the challenge is very
necessary.
3. Brushes
They may be used for hygienic cleaning, or they can be used to clean food items like vegetables, fruit, mushrooms,
or shellfish. Both of these uses are possible with these products. There is a wide variety of styles and dimensions
available for use as kitchen brushes. There are a variety of materials that may be used to construct their bristles,
including nylon, polypropylene, mesh, natural bristles, plastic, and brass.
4. Bucket
There is no need to attach labels to buckets that can be recognized immediately (like red buckets), as long as
they are not being used for anything else. The word "sanitizer" or the name of the chemical must be written on
the label of any buckets that are difficult to recognize.
5. Cleaning cloths
They are put to use for wet cleaning and moist dusting of all surfaces that are located above the ground. They
are also useful for cleaning sanitary fixtures like bathtubs and wash basins, among other similar items. Cotton
cloths that are knitted or loosely woven, as well as non-woven cotton cloths, are all examples of wipes.
Question 11: Provide 5 suggestions for safe work practices including safe manual handling when cleaning food
premises?
Question 12: What are the uses of the following types of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)?
1. Overalls
Overalls are one-piece clothes that are used to shield the user from possible dangers in the job as well as the
apparel that they are wearing. They are a well-liked option for personal protective equipment because to the
versatility of their design, which provides protection from the head to the toes, and the extreme comfort they give
for extended periods of usage.
2. Jacket
Purpose. When workers are at risk of being exposed to hazards such as poisonous or corrosive chemicals,
biological pathogens, molten metal splashes, heat extremes, and other potential dangers, employers are
compelled to provide them with personal protective equipment.
3. Apron
The apron adds another layer of protection to the front of the body, preventing it from coming into contact with
the bodily fluids or waste of the patient.
5. Gloves
Gloves are required to be worn if there is a risk of sustaining an injury or being exposed to skin contact due to the
presence of substances such as chemicals, infectious agents, heat, cold, abrasive, or cutting items.
Checkpoint 3
Question 13: List the typical the steps for a general cleaning procedure of a kitchen?
A little period of regular cleaning helps you stay on track and prevents messes from accumulating. When the dirt and muck
from day-to-day activities are removed, more in-depth cleanings on a weekly and monthly basis become less of a bother.
Spray and wipe down the top of the stove and the countertops.
Do not overlook the need of clearing the vent hood of any splatters.
Sweep the floor and clean up any spills that have occurred.
Use a cleanser that is multipurpose to scrub the sink, and then dry it off.

Warm soapy water should be used to clean cutlery, cookware, dishes, and any other detachable components. If you need to, you
can use a brush. After cleaning, give it a last rinsing in some clean water. Put the goods to be sterilized into a wire basket or
another container, and then submerge it entirely in a cleaning solution. You may make a disinfecting solution by combining one
tablespoon of unscented chlorine bleach with one gallon of warm (not boiling) water in a mixing container. Warm water makes
the bleach evaporate, which in turn makes the solution less effective. Dry the dishes using airflow on a dish rack that has been
cleaned and disinfected. The use of a dishcloth poses the risk of recontaminating the dishes. There are three primary elements
that play a significant role in determining how successful the expansion of My Other Kitchen will be. These factors include the

1. Small utensils
A kitchen utensil is a hand-held implement that is used for the preparation of meals. Common activities in the
kitchen include chopping food items to the desired size, cooking meals over an open fire or on a stove, baking,
grinding, mixing, blending, and measuring; specialized instruments are designed for each of these activities and
this would be placed on shelve.
4. Cutlery
The most fundamental definition of cutlery refers to the collection of tools that are used in the processes of
preparing, eating, and serving meals. It comes with cutlery such as knives, forks, and spoons, as well as utensils
such as salad servers, tongs, and dish holders for serving dishes.

Checkpoint 6
Question 29: Describe the correct waste management procedures for the following materials?
1. Recyclable items (commingled
Glass, metal, paper, and plastic are some of the most common types of trash found in kitchens that may be
recycled. By recycling these materials and turning them into new goods, we can cut down on the quantity of
garbage that ends up in landfills.
2. Food scraps
recycling is an effective approach to control the trash produced in kitchens. The practice of reusing or
reprocessing waste materials in order to create new goods is known as recycling. Glass, metal, paper, and plastic
are some of the most common types of trash found in kitchens that may be recycled. By recycling these materials
and turning them into new goods, we can cut down on the quantity of garbage that ends up in landfills. In order to
recycle items from the kitchen, one must first sort recyclables from other types of garbage and then deposit the
recyclables in the right recycling containers.
3. General waste
The following are some categories and instances of garbage that are most often seen in kitchens: Food waste
includes unused food from consumers, uneaten goods and ingredients, as well as waste ingredients. Recycling of
plastics includes potential recycling of recyclable food packaging. glass trash consists of empty bottles and jars that
were previously used to store liquids or chemicals.

Question 30: What are the essential environmental considerations and points of care for the disposal of
chemicals and hazardous substances?
Segregate potentially dangerous materials into their own storage spaces. Separately from the rest of the workplace, purge or
ventilate any spaces that are used for storage. Employees should get extensive training on handling and safety practices. It
would be helpful if you could offer personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, and respirators.
Question 31: Why is linen sorted and counted? How do you prevent cross-contamination from linen and
separate linen in case of contamination?
Soiled linens are sorted out and removed using carts that are specifically designed for linens. In order to prevent these carts
from coming into touch with clean and sterilized linens, they have been labeled and segregated. Before handling filthy linen
(such as sheets, towels, or curtains), you should always put on a pair of gloves made of reusable rubber. Under no
circumstances can filthy linen be carried against the body. Always be sure to put it in the appropriate container. To avoid the
contaminating of the air, surfaces, and the cleaning crew, dirty linen should be rolled up carefully. When dealing with clean and
dirty linen, they have the responsibility of ensuring that the two are kept totally separate to eliminate any possibility of cross-
contamination.
Question 32: What is a cleaning schedule? What should be included in a cleaning schedule?
A cleaning plan is a straightforward and efficient method of proving that all of the equipment is cleaned on a regular basis. It is
a series of instructions that describes everything that needs to be done in order to keep the premises in a clean and sanitary state.
The instructions are meant to be followed in order to keep the premises in good shape. The frequency of cleaning, the people
who are responsible for it, the technique of cleaning, the quantity and kind of chemical that is to be used, and the precautions
that are to be taken (such as wearing protective equipment) must all be outlined in a schedule that must be drafted and then put
into action.
The fact that it details all of the essential tasks for cleaning means that the cleaners may follow the list step by step in each room
to ensure that they clean all of the necessary components of the property. The usage of a cleaning checklist may assist you in
maintaining order in your home and ensuring that all of your activities are completed in a timely manner. They adhere to a
standard cleaning checklist in order to provide you with an atmosphere that is free of any traces of filth.
