Food Handler Card
If you prepare or serve food in a licensed food facility you are required to get a food handlers card. All food service workers including, but not limited to, cooks, wait staff, dishwashers, delivery drivers, and bus persons must obtain their card within 30 days of starting work.

The cost of the card is $10.00 and the card is valid for three years.

A valid, non-expired food manager training certificate is an accepted alternative.
Food handler cards issued in other states are not valid in Oregon.
