Inspection Violations
The frequent food violations section provides a list of potential violations, photographs of extreme violations found in food establishments, food safety rationales for preventing such risks factors from occurring and tips on how to stay in compliance.
They are organized by the severity of the violation; critical, major and minor.
All of the photos were taken by health district inspectors during routine inspections in Clark County. The photos are original and have not been altered.
The photos represent some of the most extreme examples of health code violations in each category and were selected so that the violations would stand out clearly to the viewer.
It should be noted that the majority of restaurants in Clark County do not operate under these conditions. Approximately 90 percent of Clark County restaurants pass food inspections with an "A" grade.
The photos documented here took several years to collect and came from a number of different facilities. This information is presented so you can see some of the violations encountered by health inspectors and more importantly, how to avoid having these types of violations in your facility. Note: Conditions do not need to be this extreme to result in a violation.
