Hospitality Minnesota is excited to celebrate National Food Safety Month this September with ServSafe and the National Restaurant Association. We take this time in September to highlight the ongoing importance for hospitality businesses to prioritize the highest food safety standards.

Food safety is a critical aspect of the hospitality industry, and National Food Safety Month serves as a timely reminder for businesses to review and enhance their practices. This annual observance not only highlights the significance of maintaining proper food handling and preparation techniques but also provides an opportunity for industry professionals to stay updated on the latest advancements in food safety protocols.

Hospitality Minnesota has added a collection of food-safety-related materials curated by the National Restaurant Association for member use in our member portal. These resources, available starting August 28, are designed to assist businesses in the implementation of effective food safety measures, train restaurant staff, and ensure compliance with industry regulations.

The food safety materials include:

1. Comprehensive Charts on Cooking Food Policies
2. Information on Food Time and Temperature
3. Handwashing infographics
4. Techniques to Prevent Common Health Code Violations
5. Information on Health Inspections and Violations
6. How-to Guide to Why Food Safety Regulations Are Made

Hospitality Minnesota encourages all members to take advantage of these valuable resources to reinforce their commitment to food safety excellence. By incorporating these materials into their work environments and operations, our members can enhance customer satisfaction, protect their brand reputation, and contribute to the overall well-being of their patrons.
