ServSafeTM: Benefits and Cost Reductions4
Poor food handling and preparation are the main reasons for food-borne illnesses, with the estimated annual expected economic cost of foodborne illness for Ohio to be between $1.0 and $7.1 billion, which translates into a per-Ohio resident cost of $91 to $624.
CDC estimates that each year roughly 1 in 6 Americans (or 48 million people) gets sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die of foodborne diseases. Reducing foodborne illness by 10% would keep about 5 million Americans from getting sick each year.
Every 1% reduction in food-borne illness in Ohio saves up to $5.3 million.
