Ohio Person in Charge PIC Daily Duties and Active Managerial Control Requirements

The legal duties of a PIC involve continuous daily oversight of both employees and operations. One of the primary responsibilities is managing deliveries. The PIC must ensure that staff members are visibly observing all incoming foods to verify they are from approved sources, delivered at safe temperatures, and remain unadulterated. This oversight must also extend to key-drop deliveries that occur during non-operating hours to ensure the cold chain was never broken.

This includes supervising the rapid cooling of foods, maintaining proper temperatures during hot and cold holding, and ensuring safe thawing practices. Furthermore, the PIC must verify that all foods are cooked to required internal temperatures using properly calibrated thermometers.
