The names will be sent out to local media and will also be posted on the Region's Web site. It's part of Durham's plan to get even tougher with businesses that flaunt the law, says Mr. Connor. For many years, he says, his strategy with food handlers was education and proactive measures rather than tough enforcement. The Eat Smart program is one example. It rewards businesses with a certificate they can post to let patrons know their establishment establishment has been recognized for safe food handling, good nutrition choices and a non-smoking environment. environment. But while the reward approach will work to motivate many operators, operators, Mr. Connor says, it has become clear that for some, a bigger stick is needed to ensure compliance. "For some of them you need to use enforcement and get their attention before you can have those teachable Crash kills Bowmanville senior CRASH from page 1 son, along with another woman and her two children, ages six and 14, were able to get out of the vehicle but Mr. Mazza remained trapped inside.

Last year, the health department laid only 16 court charges. Already this year, it has handed out more than 60 and Mr. Connor expects that number to break 100. It isn't that Durham's food operators operators are getting worse, it's just the nice guy has decided it's time to get tougher. "They're getting used to seeing us in the courts now," he says. Just the same, it won't be anytime soon you see Durham go to the type of mandatory identification system Toronto has where establishments must post a red, yellow or green notice notice issued by the health department to tell diners how the restaurant fared in its last inspection. Instead, Durham is planning to move to a voluntary disclosure system where operators can earn a 'food safety recognition award' to post at their entrance. The posting would be similar similar to the 'Eat Smart' certificate except except it would be strictly based on health and safety without the nutrition nutrition and smoke-free component. "There are a lot of good businesses that can't qualify for 'Eat Smart'," says Mr. Connor, only because of what's on their menu. Once the new program begins, diners who just want assurances their food is safe, not necessarily healthy, will have to look no further than the front door. And restaurants that want our business business will need to meet Mr. Connor's standards to prove they deserve it. lhour PHOTO WWW.1HR.CA -L v/ OSHAWA - A story in the June 27 edition of This Week contained an incorrect incorrect phone number for people who want to volunteer with this summer's Oshawa Jazz and Blues Festival.
