Using data from 450 Environmental Health Specialists Network (EHS‑Net) Chicken Handling Study questionnaires, this secondary analysis examined restaurant characteristics associated with cross‑contamination prevention practices. The study also tested whether establishments with certified managers, formal chicken‑handling policies, and food safety training demonstrated better prevention practices than those without. Findings aim to inform future food safety policies and training strategies to reduce cross‑contamination risks in commercial food settings. 000000533 540__ $$fCC BY 000000533 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000533 650__ $$aEquipment Contamination$$018568 000000533 650__ $$aFood Handling$$019175 000000533 650__ $$aFood Contamination$$019171 000000533 650__ $$aPolicy$$038967 000000533 650__ $$aPublic Health$$024885 000000533 650__ $$aRestaurants$$025375 000000533 650__ $$aChickens$$016459 000000533 650__ $$aClostridium perfringens$$016816 000000533 650__ $$aCampylobacter jejuni$$028901 000000533 650__ $$aSalmonella$$025680 000000533 650__ $$aSurveys and Questionnaires$$025037 000000533 650__ $$aFoodborne Diseases$$019181 000000533 650__ $$aCenters for Disease Control and Prevention, U.S.$$016311 000000533 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000000533 692__ $$aDepartment of Public Health and Preventive Medicine$$041444 000000533 7001_ $$aBakker, Hope$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000533 7201_ $$aLapidus, Jodi$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000000533 8564_ $$95de44a24-5b7f-457c-a991-02ba1dcf4a2d$$s184258$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/533/files/534_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$276f0d2e656887f40208124c487c6df1e$$31 000000533 905__ $$a/rest/prod/jm/21/4p/19/jm214p19p 000000533 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:533$$pstudent-work 000000533 956__ $$aGet Accessible Copy$$uhttps://ohsu.libwizard.com/f/requestaccessibledocument 000000533 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
