Airline catering workers in Phoenix say food is getting too hot on the tarmac.
The tarmac temperature regularly tops 100 degrees from June through September and the workers said in their letter to the FDA they were concerned because the food was"exposed to extremely hot conditions in delivery trucks." Average daily highs in greater Phoenix are above 75 for nine months out of the year.AFP - Getty Images file
"It's supposed to be at 40 degrees," said an employee who asked not to be named for fear of retaliation. He said that in the past, when he had a thermometer,"I take the temperature and it's 70, 75, 80."Diy13 / Getty Images/iStockphoto The employees who wrote the complaint said that while Sky Chefs did give drivers thermometers to monitor food temperatures on some hot days during summer 2018, that did not happen in 2019. They took their own readings on delivery trucks in July and August and said that on all 10 days they measured, both the driver's cab and the cargo area, where the food is kept, registered above 100 degrees.
