Explanation
A food establishment must have written procedures for employees to follow when responding to vomiting or diarrheal events that discharge vomitus or fecal matter onto surfaces, addressing the specific actions that minimize the spread of contamination and the exposure of employees, consumers, food, and surfaces. Supplies and contractors support the procedure but do not replace it.
