August 30, 2005 — eHospitality Institute
announced today that it would collaborate with the National Restaurant Association
Educational Foundation (NRAEF) and participate in the 2005 National Food Safety
Education MonthTM, this September, to display its commitment to food safety education and training.
This year's theme, “Keep Hands Clean with Good Hygiene,” focuses on the important procedures necessary
for proper hand washing.
Created by the NRAEF's International Food Safety Council,
this annual food safety campaign strives to, build awareness of the restaurant and
foodservice industry's commitment to serving safe food, heighten awareness about the
importance of food safety education, and encourage additional food safety training
for all industry employees.
&“We're thrilled that eHospitality Institute is taking part in
National Food Safety Education Month,” said John Farquharson FMP, president of the NRAEF's
International Food Safety Council. “It is important for suppliers to reinforce food safety
education and training techniques to sales staff, drivers and other employees, who will in
return pass this information along to their customers. This campaign is a great way for
the industry to keep food safety top-of-mind as a collective whole.”
“We are excited about collaborating with the NRAEF in
this month-long campaign,” said Kip Jaros Ph.D. CEO, Executive Director of
eHospitality Institute. “Americans are aware of food safety now more than
ever before and, through National Food Safety Education Month, we have the
opportunity to highlight what we are doing in the restaurant and foodservice
industry to educate our employees and customers on proper food safety procedures.”
