VANCOUVER, B.C. – In the face of media and public health concerns that the H1N1 flu could affect many businesses if it becomes widespread this fall, Ian Tostenson, president and CEO of the B.C. Restaurant and Foodservices Association, has offered his own thoughts on the subject. Tostenson told the Vancouver Sun, “H1N1 will require an awareness, but it’s not going to make any substantial changes to current operating procedures in restaurants.” He added, “Restaurants’ benchmarks for cleanliness standards are a lot higher than any business office, because they have to be. Cleanliness, sanitation and food safety are top of the line for a restaurant. They work
hard to ensure they comply with all the food-safety training [requirements] and comply with health board regulations. They are highly regulated and highly inspected.”
