SERVSAFE CALIFORNIA FOOD SAFETY TRAINING for Hotels and Restaurant Employees

It’s the law! – CA Food Handler training is required for California servers and Food Safety Manager training is required for all establishments serving food. Programs, such as ServSafe, are effective food-handling training programs that teach servers about basic food safety practices when preparing or serving meals to customers.

According to California law, all employees who handle food or serve alcohol are required to meet the state requirements and obtain a certification of training. Employees must remain in compliance. Employers and employees are both responsible for having a valid certification upon handling food in a restaurant and/or bar. Servsafe, accredited by the American National Standards Institute-Conference for Food Protection, teaches employees how to safely prepare, cook, and maintain a clean environment.
