Wisconsin HACCP Training and Certification
Every Wisconsin food service operation serving or selling food needs to have a food safety system in place that is designed specifically to guarantee the food being served is safe to eat. This specific food safety system is called HACCP for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point. HACCP is a system comprised of 7 principles that are to be applied to a written food safety program focusing on the food in your operation. Source: FDA – HACCP Guidance
Wisconsin requires supervisors of food service establishments and non-retail food service establishments be certified in food protection. This means a person-in-charge, an owner, or manager of a food establishment – (i.e., restaurants, bars, cafes, bakeries, delis, mobile vending, food trucks, assisted-living, day care centers, and convenience stores) become certified by taking a approved food manager training course and successfully passing an accredited food manager certification exam.
