Springfield - Greene County Health Department
The health
department divides food service code violations into two categories -- critical
and noncritical.
Critical
violations are more likely than other violations to contribute
to food contamination, illness and/or injury.
Noncritical violations, although important to the overall food
hygiene of the establishment, do not necessarily present an immediate threat to
food contamination, illness and/or injury.
A
report for each establishment that is inspected shows the number of critical
violations, along with a short statement as to the nature of each violation and
what should be done to correct it. The report also shows the number of
noncritical violations but doesn't list the nature of those violations.
