Did Your Restaurant Violate a Health Code? Here’s How You Can Recover from It

Violations of the health code are the most frightening nightmare for food-related businesses. Sadly, there are times when this nightmare can turn into reality. In the event that your restaurant has been discovered to violate the health code during the routine inspection, it doesn’t mean that you need to panic. What you should do instead is keep a cool head and take action right away to reduce the damage of the health code violation so that your business will be on its way to complete recovery sooner than later.

The Inspector is Not Your Enemy

Take note that the goal of a health code inspector is not to work against you so your business will be closed for good. Instead, the purpose of their job is to ensure that the people in the community will be safe from any possible harmful violation of the health code.

In the event that you receive a health code violation, make sure you don’t go into full defensive mode. Listen with respect instead to whatever the inspector tells you. Be open-minded and raise questions so you can have a better understanding as to why you received a health code violation. In case the violation is not that significant, you might even be allowed by the inspector to solve the issue before leaving your premises. However, it might only be possible if you are friendly and open. No one will be willing to help you if you greet them with antagonism. 

Have a Good Understanding of the Health Code Violation

Prior to solving the problem, make sure you take your time to carefully go through the actual violation of the health code. There are different complexity levels related to health codes. While others are obvious, some might be more nuanced.

For example, if you have been cited for issues about pests, it is very clear that the health inspector saw or noticed something that shouldn’t be in your restaurant kitchen like droppings, roaches, or mice. But, if you were cited for a problem that has something to do with the equipment in your kitchen, this might need further investigation.

Solve the Violation Right Away

After you understand your specific health code violation, it is now the time for you to take action. For starters, you have to be completely ready to address the issue. It is never the right attitude to settle for something good enough as far as a health code violation is concerned. You have to be ready instead to invest your energy, money and time to correct the wrong. Should you buy new equipment? Should you hire pest control experts? Asking the right questions and identifying the right answers is the key to ensure that the issue will be solved with no time wasted.
