Description:

EHS-Net Recommends

We recommend that food safety programs and retail delis

• Encourage or require kitchen managers to be certified in food safety.

• Monitor and record refrigerator temperatures.

Most delis keep food cold enough

to reduce growth of Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) and other germs that cause foodborne illness and outbreaks, but 1 in 6 delis do not.

This study was conducted by the Environmental Health Specialists Network (EHS-Net).

EHS-Net is a federally funded collaboration of federal, state, and local environmental health specialists and epidemiologists working to better understand the environmental causes of foodborne illness.
