Certificate of Insurance
Certificate of Insurance The Boston Convention & Exhibition Center requires the following coverage be on your Certificate of Insurance: • General Liability: $1, 000 million • Automobile Liability: $1, 000 million • Excess/Umbrella Liability: $1, 000 million • Workers Compensation: $500, 000 thousand • Description: 2014 Annual National Conference, July 13 - 16, 2014, Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, GES – Global Experience Specialist • Holder: School Nutrition Association – 120 Waterfront St. Suite 300 National Harbor, MD 20745 Why is Insurance Required? Please believe me when I say accidents do happen at events. People slip and fall. People are hurt by products or have allergic reactions. Displays regularly fall damaging other exhibitors property and occasionally hurting someone. The best business practice is for everyone who attends an event to be responsible for their own acts and products by having insurance in place to handle the common claims that arise.

Basic Food Safety Food Handlers should follow Ø Hair restraints - Hairnets should be worn at all these food safety measures: times when handling food. Ø Hands - Wash hands frequently. Use disposable paper towels, as much as possible, for drying hands. Disposable Gloves should be worn at all times when handling food.
Best Practices 1: Practice Good Personal Hygiene When To Wash Hands Ø Before starting to work with food, utensils, or equipment. Ø During food preparation, as needed. Ø When switching between raw foods and ready-to-eat foods. Ø After handling soiled utensils and equipment. Ø After handling boxes Ø After coughing, sneezing, using a tissue, or using tobacco products. Ø After eating and drinking; No eating in booth. Ø After touching bare human body parts; Shaking hands. Ø After using the toilet, wash hands at a hand-sink in the bathroom; and again when returning to work.
Best Practices 2: Transport foods at proper temps to prevent rapid bacterial growth Ø Hot prepared foods: >140 F ; chafing dishes must be kept above 140 degrees F. Ø Cold perishable foods (milk, yogurt, most dairy products): 32 F – 40 F Ø Frozen foods (frozen meats) <15 F Ø Coolers with ice packs
Best Practices 3: Reduce possible crosscontamination Eliminate the transfer of bacteria from one food to another: Ø Ensure that raw meat doesn’t contact ready-to-use food or fresh produce. Ø Keep liquid soap & bleach for cleaning and sanitizing. Clean work surfaces between contact, especially between raw and cooked foods. Wash utensils & equipment between uses. Ø ALWAYS store chemicals and cleaning supplies away from food.
Best Practices 4: Food Sampling Ø Prepare samples ahead of time if possible; in a sanitary manner. Ø Food Handlers/Servers should always wear hand gloves and change frequently. Ø Cover samples to protect food from contamination (use clear removable covers, clear wrap, etc. ). Ø Provide disposable single-use utensils (toothpicks, plastic forks, etc. ). Ø Put out small amounts of a sample (4 oz food and 8 oz beverages). Ø Samples should not be out NO MORE than 2 hours at room temp! Ø Keep HOT foods HOT & COLD foods COLD! Ø If using cutting utensils at booth, bring clean portable water and dish detergent. DO NOT cross contaminate knives or cutting boards. Ø Any fresh fruits and vegetables should be washed before cutting and served. Ø Many consumers have food allergens: post a list of all ingredients and clearly identify any common allergens.
