ComplianceMate™ Creates Free App for Foodservice Companies to Help Support COVID-19 Safety

832ec4bd af26 4beb abc9d291738080ba
April 8, 2020

As the impacts of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) increase and spread across the country and throughout the world, foodservice establishments are diligently working to protect their guests and staff. Yet, the safest and best practices to deal with COVID-19 are evolving almost daily, and implementing and adhering to rapidly changing guidelines and best practices is a 24/7 job.

ComplianceMate™ recognizes these challenges and is ready to help.

Foodservice companies can now get ComplianceMate’s free web-enabled app ComplianceMate C19. It is accessible via any device and was created to support efforts to control the unique, constantly evolving recommendations, and requirements for COVID-19 safety.

The app will automatically keep foodservice operators current on guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through always up-to-date checklists and workflows. The app includes guidelines for employee wellness checks, cleaning/sanitation checks, personal hygiene advice, and procedures for returning to work after an employee tests positive.

Simultaneously, the app will also record actions taken by the employee, so managers can quickly and easily confirm compliance with COVID-19 measures. The app can be used by C-stores, grocery, QSR, fast food, and restaurants offering third-party delivery.

“We want to help the foodservice industry successfully navigate through this trying time, so we’ve worked with leading public health professionals from around the country to develop this app,” says Tom Woodbury, vice president of national accounts for ComplianceMate. “As best practices continue to evolve, the app will be updated to reflect those changes.”
