Food Safety Program

The goal of the food program is to ensure that the food sold and served in Taney County is safe, wholesome, properly labeled, and produced under sanitary conditions. We strive to enforce the Taney County, Branson, and Hollister food safety ordinances; which are based on the 1999 FDA Food Code. We conduct food establishment inspections based on risk, ensure the education of food handlers and operators, review plans on all new or remodeled facilities, and inspect temporary food events to prevent food-borne illness.


 
Taney County Health Department offers classes in basic food handling safety from 9:00am to 12:00pm every second Wednesday of the month in our Forsyth, Missouri office, and from 6:00pm to 9:00pm every fourth Wednesday in our Branson, Missouri office. This class or similar approved education is required for every person that handles food for public consumption in Taney County. For more information on these classes, contact the Taney County Health Department Environmental Services section at (417) 334 – 4544, ext. 248.

 

Taney County Health Department does not at this time offer a Certified Food Manager training course. We do, however, have a list of approved Certified Food Manager Class instructors. Click here to see this list.
