Reinforce the food safety culture at your restaurant
As National Food Safety Month comes to a close, ServSafe experts focus on building your restaurant’s safety success.
Creating a strong food safety culture requires a strategic approach, plus continual support from all team members.
Establishing a strong food safety culture protects the health and well-being of your customers, and reinforces the trustworthiness of your restaurant.
Creating a companywide culture of food safety requires commitment and active management at all levels of your organization. Building that culture is about more than putting training and procedures in place. It’s also about how both are rooted in your daily operations and the mindset of each employee, from top managers to frontline employees.
Top takeaways
Creating a strong food safety culture not only requires a strategic approach, but also buy-in and continual support from everyone. Managers must communicate food safety policies and practices clearly, effectively, and regularly to hold everyone accountable for following them.

Top takeaways
- Your food safety culture is the collective values, beliefs, attitudes and practices your organization has about the food they handle. It focuses on the “how’s” and “why’s” behind your restaurant’s processes and procedures.
- Building a culture of food safety ensures that your team takes every precaution to minimize the risk of contamination. It’s also one of the best ways to ensure the health and safety of your customers, employees and business reputation.
- A strong food safety culture positively impacts staff retention. When employees unite under a central cause, such as ensuring food safety, they form deeper connections with their peers, management, and the company.
Creating a strong food safety culture not only requires a strategic approach, but also buy-in and continual support from everyone. Managers must communicate food safety policies and practices clearly, effectively, and regularly to hold everyone accountable for following them.
