Training and Monitoring
Staff should be trained when they are first hired and on an ongoing
basis. Your entire staff needs general food safety knowledge and
knowledge on specific tasks performed on the job. Staff need to be
retrained in food safety regularly, and document when a food
handler completes this training. Once staff are trained, monitor
them.
Government agencies helping
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S Department of
Agriculture (USDA) inspect food and perform other critical duties.
State and local regulatory authorities create regulations and inspect
operations. Agencies such as the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) and the US Public Health Service
(PHS) help as well.
