Does New York require a food handlers card?
New York has no law that requires a food handler card to work at a food establishment, but you must earn one if you work in Orleans County, Livingston County, or New York City.
However, even if you don’t work in one of these cities or counties, your employer may still require you to earn a food handler card.
Additionally, because nursing homes and other healthcare facilities like hospitals serve populations highly susceptible to foodborne illnesses, they rely on food handler training programs for their dietary staff.
If you are searching for a job in foodservice, earning your food handler card — even if it’s not required where you live and work — can make it easier to land your next gig or negotiate a higher starting salary.
