Food Safety Works

Essential Training for Food Service Workers

Food Safety Works is a practical, hands-on training designed for food service workers, volunteers, and anyone preparing food for the public. The class covers the core principles of safe food handling—from proper cooking and storage temperatures to preventing cross-contamination and understanding personal hygiene requirements.

Completing the course not only builds confidence in safe food practices, but also provides a 2-year certification recognized across Colorado. Many employers require or prefer staff to hold this certification, making it a valuable credential for your career.

Food Safety Works classes will resume in 2027. If you are interested in a training class or want more information, please reach out to Analecia Vasquez, Food Safety Program Specialist, at vasquean@larimer.org.
