Food Trucks are small, independent businesses that lack the infrastructure of their brick-and-mortar restaurant counterparts. The Food Trucks Association aims to develop a full suite of tools to provide a competitive infrastructure and suite of tools and resources that will help Food Trucks to advance their business.

The students can decide on one (or more) of the following projects:

1. An employee training manual that will provide best-in-class, interprovincially relevant content to address key topics in workplace health and safety. This guide does not need to include food safety requirements.
2. An employer guide that highlights the importance and advantages of strong workplace health and safety training, which should also include an employer self-assessment, to provide feedback to the employer for their own training and professional development for their business.
3. Other suggested/proposed guides from the students.

• Undertake research of the important/critical/inherent safety risks that would be relevant to food truck operations (keep in mind that food trucks often operate as caterers as well as food trucks)
• Ensure that training is specific enough to provide meaningful impact for the intended audience, while being broad enough to be used on a national basis without concern for provincial and territorial laws and standards
• Students would be encouraged to develop a 2-page guide template for each province and territory that are intended to be updated annually, that include up-to-date health and safety information and updates to be aware of, any relevant information that might be specific to each jurisdiction - with referral links for where to get the most up-to-date information.
