Whether you’re a restaurant manager or a restaurant employee, you are likely familiar with the periodic manager’s inspection known as the “Manager’s Walk” that is a routine in most restaurants. Maintaining a clean, sanitary, environment is important not only for smooth and successful restaurant operations, but also for the health and safety of your employees and your customers.
