Do employee bathroom sinks have to be monitored daily?

All handwashing sinks that a food worker would likely use to wash their hands before returning to the kitchen to handle food must be inspected daily to be sure that there is warm water, antibacterial soap, and an approved hand drying device available.

The bathroom that is closest to the cafeteria must also be monitored because it is considered the "customer" bathroom (similar to the customer bathroom in a restaurant). Thus this bathroom becomes part of the inspection because it is the one that the "customers" will probably use when dining in a school cafeteria. Most Environmental Health Specialists will inspect the boys and girls bathrooms that are closest to the cafeteria because the SC Foodservice Rules require that a customer bathroom must be available and properly outfitted -- warm water, antibacterial soap, and an approved hand drying device.
