Notes that Food Safety Standard 3.2.2 clause 22 requires food businesses to have a temperature measuring device where potentially hazardous food is handled that is: readily accessible and can accurately measure the temperature of potentially hazardous foods to +/- 1°C.
Comments that given Standard 4.2.1 is also measuring potentially hazardous food, it would seem appropriate that the same standard applies i.e. device accessible and accurate.
- recommends the wording from 3.2.2 clause 22 be included in 4.2.1
Notes that temperatures are monitored and are not recorded. This is in line with 3.2.2 but is not an acceptable standard as a business is unable to demonstrate they have complied without written records.
