Chapter 9 - Discussion Forum

Topics for discussion:

How do operational and safety priorities interact when using Time as a Public Health Control (TPHC) instead of traditional hot or cold holding methods?

Consider how TPHC provides flexibility in foodservice operations but also introduces new risks. Discuss how written procedures, staff training, and marking requirements help ensure food safety when temperature is no longer the primary control method.
