Smoking and food handling
Personal hygiene
Tổng quan
You must not smoke when handling food as ash, cigarette butts and smoke can all contaminate food.
When you smoke, harmful bacteria pass from your mouth to your hands, and then onto food.
Smoking is now banned in all outdoor dining areas across Australia - this covers restaurants, cafés, take-away shops, pubs and other licenced premises during times when food is served.
Smoking and the law
Australian law prohibits smoking in food preparation and storage areas and where food is served and eaten.
