Inspection of Food Hygiene Establishments in Multi-use Facilities.

An inspection team composed of city and district offices and consumer food hygiene inspectors will carry out the inspections from April 29 to May 8. The main inspection items include compliance with personal hygiene such as health checkups, wearing hygiene caps and masks, whether expired products are stored or used for cooking and sales, compliance with refrigeration and freezing temperature standards, and whether food is reused.

This inspection will also include sample testing of cooked foods sold at food service establishments. The test items include Escherichia coli and food poisoning bacteria, and the tests will check whether the food meets the standards and specifications.

Son Gil-kwang, Director of the Health and Hygiene Division, stated, “The city will strive to prevent safety accidents such as food poisoning through thorough inspections. As May is a high-risk month for food poisoning, citizens should always strictly follow the six major food poisoning prevention rules, including hand washing, and business owners must pay special attention and maintain continuous interest in hygienic handling of food and related items.”
