Journal of Extension, v41 n1 Feb 2003
A survey of 500 food service managers in Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana (28% responded) indicated that 72% would be more likely to hire workers with training in food safety; 50% were willing to pay higher wages to those trained; and 93% were willing to hire trained welfare-to-work participants. However, there remain barriers to hiring welfare recipients in this sector. (Contains 12 references.) (SK)
