Project Abstract

Abstract
Kitchen hazards pose significant risks to both workers and customers in food service establishments. This research project aims to investigate the specific hazards present in Lizzy Kitchen Services in Uyo, Nigeria, and explore their causes and potential control measures. The study will employ a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods to gather data on the types of hazards encountered in the kitchen, such as slips, trips, burns, cuts, and ergonomic strains. The research will delve into the root causes of these hazards, which may include factors such as inadequate training, poor equipment maintenance, lack of proper safety protocols, and human error. By identifying the underlying reasons for these hazards, the study seeks to provide actionable insights for improving safety practices in the kitchen environment. Furthermore, the project will evaluate various control measures that can be implemented to mitigate the risks associated with kitchen hazards. This may involve strategies such as employee training programs, the use of personal protective equipment, regular equipment maintenance schedules, and the implementation of safety guidelines and procedures. By focusing on Lizzy Kitchen Services in Uyo, this research project aims to provide a case study that can offer valuable insights for other food service establishments facing similar challenges. The findings of this study will not only benefit the employees and customers of Lizzy Kitchen Services but also contribute to the broader body of knowledge on kitchen safety in the food service industry. Overall, this research project seeks to raise awareness about the importance of identifying, understanding, and controlling kitchen hazards to create a safer working environment for kitchen staff and ensure the well-being of customers. By shedding light on the specific hazards present in Lizzy Kitchen Services and proposing effective control measures, this study aims to make a meaningful contribution to improving kitchen safety practices in the food service sector.

Project Overview

INTRODUCTION AND STATEMENT OF THE STUDY

1.1   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

          Kitchen safety awareness is crucial during food preparation and cooking, as well as during clean-up and daily living; understanding the hazards present in the kitchen can help you avoid accidents or subjecting your family to a bout of food poisoning.         Hazard is a situation that could be dangerous, like slipping and falling. Every kitchen has safety hazards. A hazard is any agent that can cause harm or damage to life, health, property or the environment (Sperber, 2001).

          Hazards can be dormant or potential, with only a theoretical probability of harm. An event that is caused by interaction with a hazard is called an incident. The likely severity of the undesirable consequences of an incident associated with a hazard, combined with the probability of this occurring, constitute the associated risk. If there is no possibility of a hazard contributing towards an incident, there is no risk.

          The highest proportion of reported major injuries to workers in 2009/2010 was caused by slips, trips and falls on level ground. The occupations most affected were kitchen assistants, chefs, and waiting staff. Slipping on a wet surface (grease, oil, food) was responsible for 238 of the major injuries reported. Tripping over an obstruction (furniture, small items, work materials, boxes, and waste) accounted for 78 major injuries.
