What is the proper way to store chemical cleaning agents?

Storing chemical cleaning agents in their original containers, away from food and food contact surfaces, is the correct approach because it helps ensure safety and prevents contamination. Original containers are labeled with important information, including the contents, hazards, and instructions for use, which are critical for proper handling and risk management.

Keeping these chemicals away from food items minimizes the risk of accidental spills or splashes that could contaminate food, leading to foodborne illnesses. Proper storage also helps to prevent cross-contamination with surfaces that come into contact with food. By following these guidelines, safety protocols are upheld, promoting a safe and hygienic environment in food handling and preparation areas.
