Improve Your Restaurant’s Food Safety Culture

A new plain language summary from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) outlines the key components of a strong food safety culture in restaurants. The CDC has also released a new food safety culture assessment tool to help restaurant managers:

• Explore workers’ beliefs about food safety,
• Track progress over time, and
• See which of your current practices are strengthening or weakening your restaurant’s food safety culture.

The study was part of CDC’s Environmental Health Specialists Network, a collaborative forum conducting practice-based research on restaurant food safety.
