A FOOD SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT (FSE) is a place where food is prepared and intended for individual portion service and includes the site at which the individual portions are provided, whether consumption occurs on or off premises. A CATERER is a person who prepares, furnishes, or prepares and furnishes food intended for individual portion service at the premises of the consumer, whether such premises are temporary or permanent. A CATERER is considered a FOOD SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT operator and is required to operate in conformance with the code.
UPDATE..... Upcoming food worker training requirements! |
A new NYS Public Health Law was adopted in 2007 that requires most food service establishments to have a person certified in food safety. However, this requirement will not be effective until the promulgation of the accompanying regulations. |
