To ensure food safety compliance, restaurant owners should establish a well-maintained food safety program that includes proper employee training, consistent adherence to recipes, frequent temperature checks, and routine inspections by a certified food safety professional. Additionally, proper handwashing and hygiene practices should be encouraged in the kitchen and all personnel must pass any necessary food handler training.

The best ways to avoid food safety violations are to implement a comprehensive training program for employees, maintain proper storage temperatures for food and ingredients, practice cleaning and sanitizing procedures regularly, adhere to portion sizes for pre-portioned items such as sauces and seasonings, have an accurate inventory system to monitor expiration dates of food items, always wash hands properly after handling anything potentially contaminated, label incoming shipments with product information and storage instructions. Regular inspections should also be conducted both internally and by a third party. Finally, it’s important to review your menu monthly so that you are aware of potential allergens or hazards due to recently updated regulations.  By following these steps consistently you can effectively protect your restaurant against any potential violations before they occur.
