The EH&S Food Safety Program at Cal Poly Pomona helps protect public health by ensuring food is provided in a safe, sanitary, and healthy manner. EH&S oversees any food-related activities on university property. These include permanent retail food establishments, temporary food events, student organization events, investigation and complaints. 

Any case of foodborne illness, unsanitary conditions, and malpractices related to food facilities, mobile food facilities, student club events, or public events can be reported to EH&S for further investigation.
