• Explain the requirements for a food handling permit.




Why is food safety important?


Practicing good food safety helps prevent foodborne illness. Foodborne illness is any
illness caused by eating contaminated food or water. Health Canada estimates over
4 million Canadians are ill with a foodborne illness each year. That means every
year, 1 out of 8 Canadians may be sick with foodborne illness. Foodborne illness
costs the Canadian economy $12 to $14 billion dollars a year.


Who is responsible for food safety in a food establishment?


All staff has a role in handling food safely. However, the operator of a food
establishment is the one responsible for making sure food is stored, handled,
processed and served in a safe manner at all times. An operator of a food
establishment may be the owner of the business, a manager, or a supervisor.


Provincial and Federal government agencies are responsible for enforcing food safety
regulations in food establishments. Alberta’s Food Regulation, under the provincial
Public Health Act, is enforced by public health inspectors (also known as
environmental health officers) who work for Alberta Health Services. The federal
government is responsible for the Canada Food and Drugs Act and its regulations,
which is enforced by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA).
