ServSafe California Food Handler Guide, English Translation

Description:

A short guide to food safety for employees in restaurants around the United States. This fifth English edition booklet, entitled "ServSafe California Food Handler Guide," is produced by the National Restaurant Association. It is updated with the 2009 FDA Food Code. It has a picture of a male and a female chef holding a clipboard and a food thermometer device. The top right corner is branded with the ServSafe logo, and the title of the book is written directly below the picture.

The ServSafe Essential training manual is integrated into AFC’s training program to guarantee food safety based on national rules and regulations standardized for the food industry. The idea behind this training manual is that all AFC employees will have a standardized knowledge of food safety and preparation after reading this book, leading to a standardized manufacturing of their products regardless of store location or branch. This book, along with its Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and Burmese counterparts, speaks not just to the demographics and linguistic variety of the nation’s food industry employees, but also the ethnic diversity of the AFC staff.
