Run a cleaning checklist

Checklist runs replace the paper cleaning and opening/closing forms. Each run is answered by the person on shift and signed off by a manager.

Before you start: a checklist template exists (see Set up food safety for one outlet). Safety access for the outlet.

Open the run

1. Open Safety › Cleaning (or Safety › Checklists for non-cleaning templates).
2. Today's scheduled runs are listed. Choose Start on demand to run a template outside its schedule.

Answer the items

1. Work down the list. Mark each item done, or not done with a note.
2. Add a photo reference where the item asks for evidence.
3. A critical item that fails asks for a note and raises a finding. It cannot be skipped.

Complete and sign off

1. The person on shift completes the run.
2. A manager opens the run and signs it off. The sign-off records the manager's name and time.
3. A run that could not be done, for example because the area was closed, can be excused with a reason instead of left open.

Ad-hoc tasks

Add a one-off task to today's run for something outside the template, for example a spill or a deep clean after a pest sighting.

Automatic runs

Some runs start on their own from other events, for example a post-deviation check after a fridge alarm. They appear in the same list.
