Why do you need Food Handler Certification?
As of September 1, 2006 the City of Toronto requires all food establishments to have at least one certified food handler on each shift that can supervise. This will be enforced by Public Health Inspectors effective January 1, 2007. Failure to comply can and will result in fines.
Having this certification can increase the marketability of personal support worker and food service workers as many workplaces are making Food Handler Certification a condition of employment due to the City of Toronto by-law.
