Who is the 'Person in Charge' or PIC?

  1. The chef

  2. The owner of the restaurant

  3. The manager or supervisor on-duty who is responsible for making sure food rules are followed

  4. The head waiter

The correct answer is: The manager or supervisor on-duty who is responsible for making sure food rules are followed

While the restaurant owner and chef may hold important roles, they are not necessarily in charge of ensuring food rules are followed. The head waiter may also have a significant role, but they may not be responsible for overseeing food safety. Only the manager or supervisor on-duty, also known as the Person in Charge (PIC), is responsible for ensuring that food rules and regulations are followed to maintain a safe and healthy environment for customers. This includes proper food handling, storage, and sanitation protocols. Therefore, the PIC plays a crucial role in maintaining the safety and quality of the food served in the restaurant.
