Remove food, soil, and dust, and wash and rinse dishes. Sweep and mop floors throughout the day, and spot-clean spills. Wipe tables and chairs before sanitizing.
Sanitizing
Reduce the number of pathogens on clean surfaces to safe levels. Sanitize countertops, doorknobs, bathrooms, cutting boards, and other food prep equipment.
Disinfecting
Eliminate potential pathogens by disinfecting high-touch surfaces, such as doorknobs and bathrooms. Disinfecting usually requires leaving chemicals on a surface for a certain amount of time.
Emptying and disinfecting trash cans
Empty and disinfect trash cans regularly to prevent buildup and pest infestations.
Cleaning bathrooms
Clean and sanitize bathrooms daily to keep toilets fresh and protect against bacteria. Sanitize toilet seats, soap dispensers, and taps.
