Chapter 8: Standards, Regulations, and Laws

Chapter Summary

The USDA and the FDA recommend regulations for the foodservice industry. Foods inspected by the USDA receive a grade, stamp, or approval that shows that the product meets safety standards. Foodservice professionals must evaluate the quality of the food they serve and follow strict standards for safe food handling. Laws protect workers from discrimination and give employees the right to work in a safe and healthful environment.
