Resumo(s)

The incidence of food borne outbreaks in school canteens represents a major problem for society, since they serve a youthful population who are particularly susceptible to health risks. According to the World Health Organization (2003), 31% of the reported outbreaks between 1999 and 2000 in Portugal, were originated in schools and kindergartens, which demonstrate the importance of such establishments in the transmission of food borne diseases. Food handlers have a major role in the prevention of these diseases, mainly during the production and distribution of food since they may cross-contaminate raw and processed foodstuffs.
