Participants will be issued a food handler’s certificate at the end of the class after a short quiz. There will be a charge of $10 for the food handler’s certificate. There is no charge to attend the class. The Health Division asks that it be paid with a check or money order. All Oregon food handlers are required to have the certification within 30 days of starting employment as a food handler. A food handler is any person involved in the preparation or han dling of food in a restaurant. This includes dishwashers, wait staff, bus persons and bartenders. This also includes employees in mar kets that prepare food that is ready to eat. An example would be an employee in a market’s deli catessen area. If the restaurant is a temporary food booth staffed by volunteers, only one person on duty needs to have a current certificate. For more information, call 276- 7880.
