Restaurants and Food Safety Culture 👩🍳 🍱 Restaurant managers help set the tone for a strong food safety culture by showing a personal commitment to food safety and having food safety training and policies in place. Adequate supplies for food safety practices and employee commitment to food safety are also critical to having a strong food safety culture at a restaurant. What is food safety culture? A restaurant’s food safety culture is the shared beliefs of restaurant personnel that affect their practices in ways that impact food safety. A weak food safety culture is emerging as a common risk factor for foodborne outbreaks. The food safety beliefs and behaviors of restaurant personnel could affect a restaurant’s food safety practices. The food safety culture of a restaurant either promotes or discourages safe food practices. The four key components of a strong food safety culture in restaurants: ◾ Leadership: Managers offer food safety training and policies. ◾ Manager Commitment: Managers are committed to and prioritize food safety. ◾ Employee Commitment: Employees are committed to food safety. ◾ Resources: The restaurant has sufficient resources to support food safety, such as enough soap and sinks for handwashing. #FoodSafetyCulture #RestaurantSafety #FoodSafetyLeadership #ManagerCommitment #EmployeeCommitment #ResourcesForSafety
