Hospitality exams – SummaryUse hygiene practices for food safetyLegislation:NationalFood Standards Australia New Zealand Act 1991Food Standards Australia New Zealand Regulations 1994THE STATE LEGISLATION ISNSW Food Act 2003. Main objective is to:Ensure all food for sale is safe and suitable for human consumptionPrevent misleading conduct in connection with the sale of food Provide for the application in this state of the Food Standards Code ?NSW Food regulation 2015.Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is a government appointed authority that works on behalf of the government.to develop and administer the FOOD STANDARDS CODE. The Australian Food Safety Standards Code was developed to ensure that all food sold is safe and suitable to eat and provide useful and consistent food safety legislation in Australia.This code is enforced by the Food Authority NSW.Food Poisoning: Illness caused by pathogenic bacteria or other toxins in food. Bacteria: Single celled micro-organisms. Some bacteria can cause food poisoning when in large numbers. Micro-organisms: One celled organisms which are too small to be seen by the human eye. Pathogens are negative and are organisms that cause diseases. Other microorganisms are essential to human life in ways such as breaking down food.Cross-contamination: The process by which bacteria or other microorganisms are unintentionally transferred from one substance or object to another, with harmful effect.Contagious: capable of being transmitted by bodily contact with an infected person or object.The Correct Temperatures What is the required temperature for the cool room?5?CWhat is the required temperature for the freezer?-18?CWhat is the temperature range referred to as the Danger Zone?5-60?CHACCP: HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point. It is needed by:Business with high risk groups such as hospitals and the army and places that produce food.It involves the identification of potentially harmful hazards in the food chain (from beginning to end) and puts in place to prevent these from occurring by:Analysing HazardsIdentifying the critical pointsControlling the critical points to ensure that food is safe for consumption.BacteriaCommon bacteria are:CampylobacterListeria monocytogenesSalmonellaE. ColiStaphylococcus aureusClostridium BotulinumSalmonellaSource- Intestines & faeces of humans, animals, water & soil, chicken, egg, poultryInfect: Contaminated water or foods such as meat, poultry and eggs.Symptoms - Death, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, fever, headaches, cramps.

Bacteria will double in number every 20 minutes when they are in optimal conditions.Labelled containersEach food group in separate areas of cool roomCheck use-by-datesReady to eat food away from raw foods with the raw meat on the lower shelves and the vegetables on the higher ones.Safety Data SheetsA Safety Data Sheet (SDS), previously called a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), is a document that provides information on the properties of hazardous chemicals and how they affect health and safety in the workplace. Outlines the safe use, ingredients, how to mix, appropriate uses, first aid treatment in case of an accident, storage requirements and manufacturer contact details. It has symbols to indicate how safe/toxic a substance is and also what PPE should be used when handling it.What to do if you are a sick employee?Phone manager to inform of illnessVisit your local GP to get any antibiotics and a doctor's certificateDo not return to work until the illness if fully out of your systemUpon your return to work, give the doctor’s certificate to your managerIf you are diagnosed with Salmonella poisoning, you cannot handle food and must recover. After you recover, you must go to the doctors and give a stool sample to check there is no more Salmonella in your gut. After a week you must give another sample and if you are still clear you will be given approval to return to work.Roles and Responsibilities of the EHO.An Environmental Health Officer (previously health inspector) is employed by local councils to ensure that commercial businesses (PCBU-person conducting business or undertaking) is meeting all legal requirements related to food hygiene. EHO is tasked with ensuring that all food businesses meet their legislative obligations and that all food products sold and consumed are correctly labelled and safe to eat.An EHO can:Enter and inspect premises.Examine food for sale.Take samples of foods.Examples records or documents about the handling of food.Take photographs/drawings.Ask employees questions and to provide information.

Report safety concerns/observations to WHS committee, manager or supervisor.Assist injured persons in workplace in some manner if there is an accident/emergency (minimum-contact 000)PCBU: Person Conducting a Business or UndertakingWorkCover NSWEnforces the WHS safety legislation through education, inspections and investigations into accidents and complaints. They can enter most sites after a complaint has been made and it is an offense to reject this. Inspectors investigate any incidents that cause serious injury or loss of life through taking photographs, samples, seizing property, documentation, interviews, and inquiries. They also may give out some penalties and conduct prosecutions such as improvement notices, prohibition notices and fines.Safe Work AustraliaProvides leadership and coordination for national efforts to prevent workplace death, injury and disease.They work to:Raise awareness of health and safety in the community.Putting mechanisms in place to effect change in improving workplace health and safety.Develop national work health and safety and worker’s compensation policy.Identify opportunities for improvement in worker’s compensation arrangements.They are commonly seen through advertising in television and billboards, that remind us to stay safe while at work.UnionsUnion representatives work with employees and employers to improve workplace safety. They commonly represent employees in workers compensation claims and assist with legal advice.Costs of Workplace AccidentsHuman Cost:Could include death, permanent injury, pain, suffering.

Skim milk must be textured after espresso has been made, as it separates quickly. Mise en placeMise en place is a French term meaning 'everything in its place.' It involves all the preparation of ingredients before cooking commences, the setting up and preparation of workstations for the cooking of food or the assembling of the dish. Effective preparation will minimise wastage, save time and ensure dishes are prepared within the time period required. WorkflowWorkflow is the precise steps of a task, including logical sequences, organisation, time constraints and cooperation. Key parts of a workflow plan include logical sequence, time efficiency, planning and organisation, time constraints and cooperation. Source and use Information on the Hospitality IndustryPrimary Sources: Obtaining Information first hand.Eg. guest evaluation forms, popularity of menu items, customer complaints, telephone surveys.Secondary Sources: Obtaining information from a source that has already conducted the research.Eg. Internet, Australian Bureau of Statistics, newspaper, journals, magazinesSources of information: Workplace manuals, colleges/managers, media, government, customers, questionnaires, trade union, libraries, industry journals, unions, training courses, industry association, internet, books, networksIndustry: A distinct group of productive or profit making enterprises.Allied industries: Two or more different industries that work together towards the same purpose.

They are diverse in nature and change on a regular basis depending on society’s needs. Drug and Alcohol related violence: One-punch assaults have led to tougher sentences and an increased media campaign to raise awareness. For the Hospitality Industry, lockout laws of 1:30am lockouts and 3am last drinks, have been imposed in the CBD precinct. There is a freeze on the issue of new liquor licenses for pubs/clubs and a risk-based liquor licensing scheme.Marketing Australia: In 2004, the government set up Tourism Australia. It is responsible for attracting international visitors to Australia and encouraging Australians to travel domestically. IT has flow on effects for Hospitality, increasing visitor numbers which leads to additional business.Obesity: Over 50% of the Australian population are overweight. The government responded by healthy eating campaigns, increasing school canteen requirements to decrease to overweight trend in Australia. School canteens must sell healthy foods, with smaller servings to avoid children overeating.An idea recently being tested by the government is that people with welfare cards in remote areas are being given a card-like debit card that can only be used to buy food, and not alcohol.Education, training and employmentFood SafetyThe government has made the Name and Shame website, Scores on doors program, and the introduction of a mandatory Food Safety ernment initiatives include:Subsidise training costs for areas with skills shortages.Subsidise wages or provide incentives to hire specific workers such as apprentices or unemployed.Make student loans more accessible.Investment and grants towards Trade Training Centres.Establish Skills Australia to identify skills shortages.In the 2012-13 Federal Budget, over one billion dollars was allocated to vocational education and training.Grants for the Australian Apprenticeship Mentoring program.457 visa was adapted to sponsor overseas workers to address skills shortages.Emerging MarketsRefers to a group of customers, a product or type of organisation that is experiencing rapid growth.Food Trucks: aim of attracting a different market in various locations of the city. Each truck offers different menus and are located in areas that have limited food and beverage facilities. They rely on social media to inform customers on their whereabouts.Pop-Up restaurants: Unique experience for a relatively short period of time, from a few weeks to a few months. Offer a fair bit of hype.E-Business: The internet has allowed access to a wider market as customers can can view products and services, and make bookings online. This can offer increased business for small-medium organisations. However, price competition is important to customers comparing organisations and discount rooms may be offered. The management of online customer service is integral to this internet presence.Healthy Menus/Special diet options: The focus on healthy meals and menus that cater for diets such as gluten free, lactose free, diabetic and vegetarians has increased significantly.Baby Boomers: Those born between 1945-1961. They have a high disposable income and like to travel. Caravan accommodation and socialising is popular with this group.Schoolies Week: Year 12 school leavers having a break after final exams. Accommodation sector promotes heavily to this group. Security and safety remain an issue and some organisations have banned schoolies.Industry Expansion/RetractionGrowth periods within the hospitality industry. Includes:Asia is an important market for Australia due to its proximity. China is the most significant with a population of 1.36 million and has the fastest growing economy in the world. The government has offered grants for organisations to attract this market and increase arrivals further.Celebrity visits to Australia has resulted in a positive exposure for Australia globally.International sporting events such as the 2018 Queensland Commonwealth games or when the Royal family visited Australia led to wider tourism.Cultural events such as the Tamworth music festival are extremely important for establishments within these regions.Retraction refers to periods where there is no growth or negative growth.Examples Include:The 2011, Queensland floods and Cyclone Yasi, affected tourism to Queensland and caused significant damage.New Zealand experienced devastating earthquake reducing the number of inbound tourists in the area.The 2008/9 Global financial crisis triggered global recession and impacted significantly on financial markets.Hotel bookings decrease as Airbnb increases. Restaurant eating decreases as Uber eats increases.Labour IssuesThere are limited full time positions and most are casuals so labour turnover is very high.The recent changes to penalty rates in the hospitality industry, which was made by the government, include workers losing their Sunday penalty rates. This has angered workers as they are receiving less pay. It is cheaper for a business to be open and they can now stay open longer hours and do more business over the weekend. Customers are also happy as there are more places open at an affordable price on the weekend.There are peak times during holiday periods and therefore the work is seasonal.Hospitality organisations look at strategies to retain staff.This includes flexibilities with rosters, staff development, better working conditions, and adopting a range of non-monetary benefits.There is a shortage of qualified chefs due to an increase in retention rates at school and negative social attitudes towards trade work.Online courses allow time poor individuals to understand the courses and complete coursework in their own time.Workers may be unaware of their rights and paid unjustly. The Fair Work Act has simplified the industrial relations framework, making it easier for organisations to comply.The explosion of media competitions/shows relating to food (MKR, MasterChef, baking shows, etc.) means that customers believe that they are chefs and have an increased knowledge about food and beverages than ever before. They are also well travelled and looking for new, exciting dining experiences. Therefore, the hospitality industry and workers need to stay up to date, especially on emerging industry trends. ................
