A line cook tells the manager he was diagnosed with an E. coli (STEC) infection. What must the manager do?

Shiga toxin-producing E. coli is one of the reportable 'Big Six' pathogens; an employee diagnosed with it must be excluded from the food establishment, not merely restricted to warewashing or other non-food duties, and the regulatory authority must be notified. The employee generally may not return until cleared under the Food Code's reinstatement criteria, so the end of symptoms alone does not earn a return to work. Gloves do not stop an infected worker from shedding this pathogen.
