State Regulations

The Oregon Food Sanitation Rules mandate that all employees undergo food handler training. However, in addition to this requirement, a Person in Charge must possess advanced knowledge of food safety, food-borne illness, HACCP, and other concepts that are not covered in basic food handler training.

Although food manager certification is not mandatory in Oregon, it is highly advantageous to obtain. Being a Certified Food Protection Manager can be a suitable substitute for a Food Handler's Card. Moreover, it is recognized as a valid Demonstration of Knowledge during inspections, alleviating one concern. The alternative methods of demonstrating knowledge include having no "priority" violations or answering all questions from an inspector accurately. Unlike these approaches, certification guarantees compliance.

It is always advisable to consult with your local health department to ascertain any additional certification and training requirements.
