The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture (PDA)requires the 'person in charge' in a food service operation to hold a 'nationally recognized food protection certificate' such as ServSafe®. The certified person must be accessible during the facilities hours of operation. Additionally, all individuals seeking food safety certification are required to pass a certification exam every five (5)years.
The ServSafe® course, conducted by Penn State Cooperative Extension, is for individuals preparing for the exam. After attending the ServSafe® class(es) and passing the proctored, multiple-choice exam with a score of 75% or higher, participants will receive a ServSafe® certificate, which meets the PDA requirement for food safety certification.
