In its own statement, Chipotle outlined some of the changes it has made since the outbreaks began, including wellness checks for each employee before they start their shift, detailed traceability of each ingredient in the supply chain, and enhanced food preparation and food handling practices designed to reduce food safety risks.

“All of these efforts have led to a robust food safety culture that Chipotle believes is one of the finest in the industry as evidenced by Chipotle leading the industry with the lowest number of violations on independent health department inspections,” the statement concluded.
