Where should staff members eat, drink, smoke, or chew gum?

Staff members should eat, drink, smoke, or chew gum in designated areas. This is to avoid cross-contamination of food and to maintain a professional appearance in front of customers. Dish washing areas, the kitchen door, and where customers eat are all areas where food is present or prepared. It is important to avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or chewing gum in these areas.
