SaaS - Regulatory Reports for Safe Food Handling

The California Food Handler Card law – SB 602 – is a landmark bill signed in 2010 that creates a statewide standard for safe food handling in California’s restaurants. The law ensures that food handlers gain and exhibit basic food safety knowledge by passing a test.
    Food handlers must obtain a food handler card within 30 days of the date of hire.
    A California Food Handler Card is valid for three years, and food facility operators are required to maintain record of a current card for each employee. Local health departments will enforce the mandate during the inspection process.
    The California Food Handler Card is recognized throughout the state, though three counties – Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego – have existing local food handler card requirements that are not affected by the state law.
