This study was conducted to evaluate sanitary practices of employees in business & industry foodservice operations of Pusan and the Kyung Nam areas, and to suggest a guideline for an effective sanitation training program. The questionnaire was used in this study as a survey method. Questionnaire were administered to 246 employees. The results were as follows. 55.3% of employees have had regular(monthly) food sanitation education. The mean rating of food sanitary knowledge for all employees was 65.9/100. When the education level was higher and the age younger, the mean rating of was also higher. Among the ratio of correct answers for food sanitary knowledge areas, a equipment sanitation was the highest (80.5%), and time temperature was the lowest(45.3%). The mean rating of sanitary procedures for food storage was 4.80/5.00, pre preparation 4.04/5.00, personal hygiene 3.54/5.00, equipment sanitation 3.20/5.00, and food preparation 2.56/5.00. Employees regularly educated in food sanitation rated significantly higher for food preparation than those who were of irregulary educated. The higher mean rating group(over 66) for the food sanitary knowledge showed significantly higher rates in sanitary procedures(food preparation, equipment sanitation, and personal hygiene) than that of the lower group(below 65). The practice of personal hygiene was positively correlated (p<0.001) with sanitary concept and food preparation, among the food sanitary knowledge areas.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of the foodservice management practices, the equipment ratio of sanitary facility/equipment, and dietitians' perceptions of (i) the barriers to sanitary management and (ii) the sanitary management performance level in the welfare institutions for the disabled in Korea. The survey was conducted during the period from September 7 to October 15, 2006. A total of 91 institutions(response rate 74.6%) were analyzed by using SPSS(windows ver. 14.0). The average number of meals served per day per an institution was 379. The majority(93.4%) of dietitians made decisions in procurement. The major part of the purchase was made through private contract. The factors affecting menu planning were nutrition, food preference, and cost, in the order of importance. Among the food items, fruits were infrequently served, while protein source foods and green leaf vegetables were almost daily served. The equipment ratio of sanitary facilities/equipment was 45%, which was relatively low. Most dietitians perceived 'limited availability of facilities and equipment' and 'the lack of support from financing department' as the major barriers in implementing a desirable sanitary system. Sanitary management performance in 'the food ingredient' was perceived as the lowest, while that in 'the uniform' showed the highest. The results of this study suggest that a proper supporting program on securing the facility/equipment and adequately trained employees are needed for successful sanitary management. Also, a more frequent supply of fruits for the disabled is recommended.

A survey was implemented to suggest basic data for assuring the safety of cooked foods in foodbank operations. A questionnaire consisted of total 48 items including general characteristics, basic inputs and perceived importance/performance of sanitary management. One hundred twenty-eight responses among the 267 nationwide foodbanks were used for the statistical analysis. About forty-one percent of foodbanks was operated a period of 1-3 years and 43.0% of them were managed by social welfare organizations. The number of staff was only 0.5 person per operation with the whole responsibility and 1.0 with additional work, and thus most of the work was managed by volunteers. Job satisfaction was shown to be moderate and was affected by specialty and salary mostly. The facilities and equipment in foodbanks were not enough to operate and freezers/refrigerators were the top priority to supplement. Most of the respondents attended a nationwide level sanitary education program (79.7%); but complained not enough frequency of education (90%). The sanitary status of the donated foods was considered as satisfactory but some safety practices had to be improved, including personnel expenses and operating costs in the district level, a sanitary awareness of the donors and a general management of the facilities arid equipment. An assessment on sanitary management resulted in an overall average of 4.45 out of 5 points in importance and 3.85 in performance showing the high level of sanitation perception in foodbank managers. From the IPA analysis, the fields found to be improved were sanitation management during cooking and temperature control as well as cleanliness and sanitation of both transport vehicle and refrigerator/freezer. To secure the food safety in foodbanks, consequently, personnel support, supplement of facilities and equipment, intense sanitation education and development of sanitation management program is needed.

The HACCP (hazard analysis critical control point) concept becomes an important aspect of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) in safe food production. The HACCP plan was developed with food safety objective. The authors already carried out hazards analysis on Changran Jeotgal manufacturing process in a previous report. In this study we developed a HACCP plan on the manufacturing process of Changran Jeotgal. We could decide two CCPs those were salt concentration and eliminations of foreign materials before packaging. Foreign materials should be certainly checked out with laser detector just before packaging. Salt should be maintained more than $8\%$ to inhibit pathogenic bacteria in end product. On the Jeotgal process free water is removed after salting and Jeotgal is seasoned with several subsidiary materials such as com syrup. In result end products have $8\%$ salt with water activity 0.82. Most bacteria are inhibited but some can live in this condition. Materials on the working may be contaminate by pathogens, chemicals or physical hazards. It will be decreased by SSOP (standard sanitary operating program). The SSOP needed in Jeotgal plants is nearly same as other general food manufacturing plants but essential to fulfill HACCP program.

Time-temperature relationship and microbiological quality were assessed and critical control points were identified through hazard analysis during the phases of production in two different packaged meals (Dosirak) manufacturing establishments (A, B:Kim Pab). Microbiological tests on foods, equipments and utensils were done according to standard procedures and included total plate count, coliforms and fecal coliforms. The results of the study are summarized as follows : time-temperature control management was needed because time-temperature abuse more than 8 hours at dangerous temperature zone (5-6$0^{\circ}C$) was observed from pre-preperation to distribution phase; Poor sanitary practices of employees were observed in hand washing and using disposable gloves; Microbiological analysis results of equirpments and utensils showed possible cross-contamination risks when foods were contacted with them; Kim Pab needed thorough quality control because it included various mixed ingredients of cooked and uncooked and had many apportunities of cross-contamination either by equipments or hands through whole production processes.

6 Central commissary and 2 conventional school foodservice operations were assessed in terms of time-temperature relationship and microbiological quality, and monitoring control methods were identified through hazard analysis during the phases of prodution and distribution. 2 conventional schools from Seoul and 6 commissary schools from Kyungkido were participated in the survey. Meals produced in central commissary were distributed to satellites, therefore delivery practices of foods were identified as critical. Microbiological test results for commissary and conventional schools revealed that microbiological quality of foods was mainly related to time-temperature management, types of food, and equipment sanitation not to the foodservice system used. Time-temperature profiles at temperature danger zone (7.2-60$^{\circ}C$) observed were to be related to the following sanitary practices: cooked vegetables were held at temperature danger zone for relatively longer delayed time (15-38$^{\circ}C$: 15-226 min, 7-60$^{\circ}C$: 75-226 min), and same results were observed for deep-fat fried cutlets (15-38$^{\circ}C$: 15-151 min, 7-60$^{\circ}C$: 33-151 min). Menu items with various ingredients and frequent contacts with hands and equipments during the production flow were held at temperature danger zone for longer delaying time than other menu items with brief prodution stages. Based on hazard analysis critical control points, microbiological quality was collectively affected by time-temperature relationships, equipment sanitation, proper cooking methods, and sanitary management competencies of dietitians. Microbiological test results of working equipments and surface of dishes and trays showed that immediate action should be taken. Cutting boards used in central kitchen were also showed similar results of potential dager of cross-contamination. Effective sanitary control methods were urgently needed.
