  • Guidelines:

  • Clean Aprons Regularly
    Aprons should be laundered daily or more frequently if visibly soiled.
  • Use Designated Aprons
    Aprons should be used exclusively for food handling and not for other tasks, such as cleaning or bussing tables.
  • Remove Aprons When Not Handling Food
    Aprons should be removed when servers are not directly handling food, such as when taking orders or clearing tables.
  • Store Aprons Properly
    Aprons should be stored in a clean and dry location when not in use.
  • Inspect Aprons Regularly
    Aprons should be inspected for tears, stains, or other damage that could compromise their effectiveness.
  • Use Aprons with Pockets
    Aprons with pockets should be avoided, as they can harbor food particles and bacteria.
  • Avoid Cross-Contamination
    Aprons should not be used to wipe hands or surfaces, as this can spread bacteria.
