CLICK TO READ, CHANGES IN FOOD HANDLERS!!!!
New! Online Food Handler Permit
ALL food service employees are required by State law to have this certification. This includes cooks, servers, hostesses, dishwashers; and cashiers in convenience stores that serve potentially hazardous foods such as soups, hotdogs, and other foods prepared on-site. It is also recommended for nurse’s aides. If your job involves handling food, you need a Food Handler’s Permit.
Classes take about an hour. You will watch a video detailing correct food and utensil handling, hand-washing, cooking and cooling, and dishwashing; and take a multiple-choice test.
The FHP is good for three years, only in the state of Utah. FHP or equivalent holders from other states must take the Utah course. Any current Utah Food Handler Permit is good in our district. For costs and other information, contact your local health department office.
Due to the short time of the course, late comers may be turned away!
