SANTA ANA/SAN FRANCISCO -- State Compensation Insurance Fund’s Santa Ana District Office on Oct. 4 will host a free Restaurant Health & Safety workshop to help restaurant supervisors and owners create a comprehensive safety training program and comply with state and federal workplace regulations.

The workshop will help restaurant managers and owners to:

• Meet CAL/OSHA training requirements.
• Engage workers in the safety programs.
• Identify ways to prevent injuries.
• Provide a one-hour safety-training seminar tailored to their restaurant.

All participants will receive various educational materials including training guides, safety tip sheets and safety orientation checklists.
