What precautions need to be taken to prevent burns and scalds? Be aware of hot surfaces and open flames. Never leave food unmonitored. Wear protective clothing Use caution when removing lids from pans and when removing dishes from dishwasher Cool cooking equipment and vents before cleaning . Cooking equipment and vents should be cooled before cleaning them; it is best to clean equipment at the start of a shift. Fire safety will be covered in depth later in the unit. Other heat sources include boiling water, steam baths, sinks and dish washers. Reaching over boiling pots and hot water sources can lead to severe burns from steam. When opening pots or steam baths, workers should stand to the side and use the lid as a shield. To prevent fires, workers should monitor cooking food carefully. Hot grease and oil should never be left unattended. Oils and grease should be cooled before transporting them. Grease traps and grill surfaces should be cleaned frequently and flammable items should not be kept near flames or heat sources. It is important to know and practice emergency procedures, first aid, and how to use a fire extinguisher. Wearing close-fitting sleeves prevents catching them on pot handles, oven and stove knobs, or dangling them in flames or hot oil. Shoes should have cushioned insteps and slip-resistant soles. Aprons provide an added layer of protection from splashes of hot water or grease. Hand mitts and pot holders should be used when handling hot items 9/11/2018 CUL-KitchenSafety-PowerPoint1.ppt
