When working at a commercial location that serves food, it is against health codes to operate any machinery, even a vacuum cleaner while patrons are dining.  Also, most cleaning chemicals are not allowed while patrons are dining. I know each jurisdiction will have its different guidelines.  But it is probably best to make it a general rule not to work on a site that may have patrons dining.  With that in mind...places such as Las Vegas that usually have patrons 24/7, have much different guidelines.

I bring this up because we recently worked on a restaurant who assured us they were closed all day until 5:30pm when they open and close at 2:30am.  But they forgot to mention that they had a lunch group scheduled while we were scheduled to work on their floors.  This happened three days in a row and we had to pack up and leave each time and had to re-arrange our schedules. 

Do you think a little clause on our contract should have included that we are unable to work if patrons are dining? We have a clause that states that they are responsible for the daily rate if we are unable to work that day. 

Thanks all!
Georgia
