Restaurant Safety Tips

Restaurants can be quite a hazardous place for both employees and customers. We have detailed below some tips below for keeping safe and preventing any accidents from happening.

Dining Room

  • Ensure waiting staff do not carry more than they can handle and make a few trips for larger loads
  • Clean up spills immediately and use warning signs to notify people of the hazard
  • Make sure any mats or rugs are straightened out to prevent trips
  • Remove any clutter from passageways or entrances
  • Pick up any cutlery that has been knocked off tables

Kitchens

  • Ensure kitchen staff wear the correct protective clothing and non-slip, closed toe shoes
  • Clean up spills immediately and use warning signs to notify people of the hazard
  • Notify the manager or owner if you notice uneven floor surfaces
  • Make sure work stations are clear from clutter and place all utensils in the correct place once you’ve finished using them
  • Use non-slip mats around slippery areas, such as the sinks/dishwashers
  • Never run in the kitchen
