From the study guide
Maintaining a safe work environment is the foundation of professional culinary practice, governed by the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) regulations and the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS). A safe kitchen minimizes the risk of slips, trips, falls, and thermal injuries, which are the most common causes of workplace absenteeism. By adhering to standardized safety protocols, cooks protect themselves, their colleagues, and the integrity of the food supply chain.
