next health
inspection

t's coming, though few pizzerias
know when.
The health inspection is a regular
event on every restaurant's calendar and
while some of the nation's restaurant
operators have the advantageous ability
to schedule their health inspection, most
do not. An inspector shows up, randomly,
with a checklist in hand to ensure compliance
with safety and sanitation guidelines.
For pizzerias, the inspector's arrival can
be a pulse-raising experience, as health
inspection reports are, in many municipalities,
easily found matters of public

record that can affect a brand's reputation
and sway dining decisions. (Last March,
it's worth noting, Yelp announced a
partnership with Hazel Analytics to post
publicly available health department data
on its review platform, a move simplifying
heath inspection data discovery for millions
of Americans.)
" While a health inspection is a 'snapshot'
of the day and time of the inspection,
the inspection results leave a lasting
impression on the establishment, " says
Francine L. Shaw, who regularly consults
and trains foodservice establishments on
food safety as the CEO of Savvy Food
Safety and TracSavvy.
To be certain, a 100 percent health
inspection mark is tough to achieve since
various minor infractions, such as leaving
a cloth or tongs on a table, are often little
more than harmless, honest blunders.
Nevertheless, acing the health inspection
remains a worthy pursuit given the
potential consequences of a lackluster
inspection and the expectations the public
holds for safe and properly run foodservice
establishments.
