Critical violations are identified by an asterisk (*) next to the violation on the inspection report. Florida's Division of Hotels and Restaurants is a national leader in adopting food safety practices of the U. S. Food and Drug Administration and the Conference for Food Protection. In March 2004, the division began the process to identify "risk factors" as critical violations. Since these are being phased in, some of the inspection reports may not identify these as critical violations; however, the inspection information available on DBPR Online Services and the data downloads correctly distinguish them according to the current standards. For purposes of enforcement and compliance, the division recognizes the status as printed on the inspection form, although the severity of the violation observed may warrant additional action regardless of its "critical/noncritical" designation. Risk factors are denoted by the cross (†) symbol.
