Set up & enable the pre-shift health check (admins)
Admin guide to enabling the pre-shift health check (a HACCP prerequisite program) and configuring the temperature threshold and gate mode, from Admin > HACCP > Hygiene Settings.
【What this feature does】
Before clocking in, employees are asked to declare their health status (temperature, symptoms, hand wounds, etc.). Symptomatic workers are restricted from work and the declaration is recorded. This supports the prerequisite program (general hygiene management) of HACCP for food businesses. For the legal background, see #HACCP-004.
【How to enable it】
- 1.Open Admin > HACCP & Hygiene > Hygiene Settings (requires HACCP admin permission).
- 2.Turn the "HACCP Health Check" switch ON.
- 3.Press "Save settings" at the bottom of the screen.
Note: flipping the switch alone does not apply it — you must save. While disabled, the detailed options are hidden.
【Settings】
・Gate mode
- Auto: declarations outside the criteria are blocked immediately and sent for approval.
- Manual: always sent for approval; an admin decides case by case.
・Temperature threshold (℃): flagged at or above this value (default 37.5℃).
・Family symptom check: require declaring symptoms of household members.
・Hand/wound check: require declaring hand cuts or sores (S. aureus prevention).
・Cluster escalation count: notify the HACCP admin when symptomatic cases reach this number in a period.
【Symptom master / checklist items】
On the same page you can add and reorder the symptoms to be declared (fever, diarrhea, vomiting, etc.) and the hygiene checklist items.
【For employees】
Once enabled, employees complete the health check from the dashboard or mobile before clocking in. If a declaration is outside the criteria, it enters the restriction/approval flow according to the gate mode.
【Records & review】
・Responses are stored as electronic records, supporting HACCP record retention.
・Review and approve pending cases from Admin > HACCP > Health Approvals.
・Export summaries from Health Reports.
【Permissions】
This setting is available to users with the "HACCP admin (admin:haccp)" permission. If it is not shown in the admin menu, or you are redirected to the dashboard when opening it, check that the permission has been granted.
