Serving food in the Garden State? Here’s what you need to know to stay compliant and confident in the kitchen.
Not statewide—yet.
The New Jersey Department of Health does not mandate food handler certification for all food workers at the state level. However, local health departments and employers often require it, especially in areas with stricter public health oversight like Newark, Jersey City, Atlantic City, and Trenton.
In short: If you're handling food in New Jersey, getting certified is a smart move—and often expected.
Here’s where food safety certification is commonly expected—or outright required:
Full-service restaurants, fast food, and cafés
Bars, grills, diners, and food trucks
Resorts, hotels, and beach lodges
Casinos and racetracks (yes, even hot dog stands at the track!)
Grocery stores and convenience stores with food prep
Theme parks, boardwalks, fairs, and movie theaters
Catering companies and banquet venues
School cafeterias and culinary arts programs
Whether you're slicing pizza in Hoboken or serving clam chowder on the Jersey Shore—this training applies to you.
Yes. FHC® is ANAB-accredited, meaning it meets national food safety training standards that many New Jersey counties and employers recognize. Even in cities without a legal mandate, an FHC® certificate shows you’re trained and trustworthy.
If you’re in a New Jersey culinary program, vocational high school, or community college hospitality course—yes, it usually does. FHC® is often accepted as a pre-internship or lab requirement.
Check with your program to be sure, but this is a widely approved training across the state’s culinary education landscape.
It depends on the district, but many K–12 schools, private academies, and preschools do require food safety certification for staff who prepare or serve food. FHC® covers the essentials and fulfills requirements in most districts across the state.
Your certificate is valid for 3 years, though some employers or local health departments may recommend renewing it more frequently.
