Does Connecticut require Food Protection Manager Certification? Yes, most food establishments in Connecticut are required to have a Certified Food Protection Manager (CFPM). Specifically, Class two, three, and four establishments must designate a CFPM who is present during all hours of operation. However, during designated non-peak hours (such as overnight shifts with limited staff and activity), a trained alternate PIC may supervise the establishment. Regardless of the scenario, the designated PIC must be appointed in writing using forms provided by the Connecticut Department of Public Health. What is the role of a CFPM in Connecticut? The CFPM oversees all food-handling processes in the establishment to ensure safety and sanitation. Their responsibilities include ensuring the proper handling, preparation, and storage of food, enforcing hygiene protocols among staff, and preventing food contamination.  Do CFPM requirements change throughout Connecticut’s different cities or counties? Connecticut’s food safety regulations, including CFPM requirements, are standard statewide and adhere to the 2022 FDA Food Code. The state adopted these guidelines to align with a national regulatory framework prioritizing food safety through scientific evidence and legal structuring.   Unlike other states, Connecticut’s local health departments do not impose additional certification requirements beyond state mandates. However, they are responsible for licensing, inspections, and ensuring compliance with state and federal regulations.  Where can you learn more about Connecticut’s food safety regulations?
