A Clean As You Go Policy

Most professional kitchens choose to implement a clean as you go policy. This is a strategy that is used to minimise hygiene problems by continually cleaning work spaces throughout that day. It means taking opportunities to clean sideboards, wash up equipment and return unused items to fridges and storage.

A clean as you go policy will take into account the two varieties of this method: urgent and non-urgent. The urgent clean as you go system refers to cleaning messes and equipment that poses and immediate hazard to hygiene, safety or health. For example, spilled liquid. A non-urgent clean as you go system refers to items that don’t pose any immediate hazard. It would include wiping surfaces and putting equipment into dishwashers.

Once a policy is in place, a Clean As You Go sign helps to remind staff to follow the policy and to clean up work areas throughout the day.

Mandatory Cleaning Sign

This Please Clean As You Go sign features the standard mandatory exclamation mark to advise that kitchen workers must keep work surfaces hygienic. It helps to make the sign eye-catching, to ensure that staff are aware of the instruction and therefore more likely to follow it.

The sign is also written in clean and easy to read font to ensure the sign is as clear and as noticeable as possible.

Aluminium or Plastic Clean As You Go

Our Clean As You Go sign is available in recycled plastic, composite aluminium or as a vinyl sticker that is self-adhesive. The recycled plastic option is one of the most popular choices.
