Dear Tusher,
I agree that testing of food before giving to large number of guests is a common practice followed by all of us even during wedding. Here the testing does not mean Taste. In most of the establishments having canteen facility, there are different methods adopted for ensuring proper quality of food as under:
1. To appoint a Small Committee of 3/4 employees with Manager HR as Chairman and others to fix daily menu for the week, hygiene of canteen workers, cleanliness of premises, upkeep of furniture, crockery and utensils cleaning quality, etc.
2. To appoint Canteen Manager who can do the food testing and look after other functions. This person should be of cantteen contractor.
3. If Management is staff health concious, like RBI who have Dietician who decides menu for a week and also does periodic food testing
What is important is HR Manager should take this reposibility with grace. Also suggest the ways stated above to the Management. It is always desirable to state the problem and plausible solutions to the Management lest we become unwittingly part of the problem.
