What does all that terminology in state restaurant inspections mean?
Basic violations are those considered against best practices.
Intermediate violations are those which, if not addressed, could lead to factors that contribute to foodborne illness or injury, including insufficient personnel training, documentation or record keeping and labeling.
High-priority violations are those that could contribute directly to foodborne illness or injury, such as in cooking, reheating, cooling and hand-washing.
A warning is issued after an inspector documents violations that must be corrected by a certain date or within a specified number of days from receipt of the inspection report.
An administrative complaint is a form of legal action taken by the division. Insufficient compliance after a warning, a pattern of repeat violations or existence of serious conditions that warrant immediate action may result in the division initiating an administrative complaint against the establishment. Administrative complaints may be issued for basic, intermediate or high-priority infractions.
Says the division website, “Correcting the violations is important, but penalties may still result from violations corrected after the warning time was over.”
An emergency order — when a restaurant is closed by the inspector — is based on an immediate threat to the public. In this circumstance, the Division of Hotels and Restaurants director has determined that the establishment must stop doing business and any division license is suspended to protect the health, safety or welfare of the public.
Twenty-four-hour call-back inspections are performed after emergency closures or suspensions of licenses and an establishment may reopen only after inspection shows that all high-priority violations that caused the suspension are corrected.
