About Ohio’s Level One Certification in Food Protection requirement: Effective March 1, 2010, the certification in food protection rule, 3701-21-25 of the Administrative Code, was amended to require basic food handler certification covering the principles of food service operations in three situations:

  • persons in charge of a new food service operation or retail food establishment;
  • persons in charge of a food service operation or retail food establishment when the local health department has documented failure to maintain sanitary conditions; and
  • persons in charge of a food service operation or retail food establishment that has been implicated in a foodborne disease outbreak.  More >
