Understand the new trends in the industry and protect the legitimate rights and interests of restaurants - Lecture series on laws related to the restaurant industry (photo) A group photo of some participants (Alberta Times) At 2:00 pm on August 16, a lecture on laws related to the restaurant industry hosted by the Chinese Restaurant Association of Alberta was held at Luk Fook Restaurant. Lawyer Wu Zhaowen, Maricopa Health Bureau Inspector Huang Lijing, and senior insurance consultant Xu Guofu gave the attendees wonderful lectures on laws, health provisions, employee insurance, and precautions for liquor-licensed restaurants. Restaurant Association Chairman Yang Zhengang, directors Xu Guofu, Lai Jiayi, Lu Shaoming, Zhang Huafang, Wu Yizhao, Mei Shude, Guan Shaofeng and many restaurateurs were present to study and receive Chinese reference data. Lawyer Wu Zhaowen first introduced the impact of the SB1070 immigration law. Employers can confirm the identity of the employer through the E-Verify website and I-9 form. Employers are requested to retain employee information to prove that they are verifying the identity of the employee through the required channels. If an employer still hires an employee after knowing that he or she is not working, the first time he or she is discovered will be subject to a maximum penalty of 10 days of license revocation and a 5-year inspection period. If the employer is discovered again during the inspection period, the license will be revoked. Commonly used documents for employees to prove their work status include passport, green card, work card, driver's license, etc. Maricopa Health Department Inspector Huang Lijing also brought the latest policies to restaurant owners. Obtaining a restaurant service industry employment card now requires photo identification such as a driver's license issued after 1996, a U.S. birth certificate, a photo-rich I-94 form, a citizenship certificate showing tribal certification of Indian ancestry, etc. Employees can take exams online, but before taking the exam, they must first confirm that it is an official website to ensure that the exam results are valid. Regarding health inspections, employers have the right to follow the inspectors to understand the specific deficiencies in the restaurant. The inspectors have the right to record, so employers should reasonably cooperate with the inspection. The current inspection standards are based on the 2009 FDA food standards. Compared with the original inspection content, the temperature requirements are more stringent, and green vegetables also require refrigeration. Penalties for some inspections have also been revised. Under the terms of serious violations, if the same provision is violated four times in a row, the license will be revoked and there will be a three-month investigation period. If the violation occurs again, the company must close its doors. Therefore, Ms. Huang suggested that Chinese restaurants join the food safety management cooperation program, which allows them to inspect their own hygiene. At the same time, they will also receive a project cooperation mark to let customers know that this restaurant is self-disciplined in its hygiene status. Ms. Huang said that she is willing to cooperate with restaurants that request to participate in the food safety management cooperation program and assist them in applying. Senior insurance consultant Xu Guofu brings information about employee insurance to employers. Employee insurance is an item required by the Arizona Department of Industry. Employers who fail to purchase insurance truthfully will be fined if discovered. Employee insurance only requires a little more than a percent of the employee's salary (Payroll), and you can receive compensation of up to millions. If a work accident occurs in a restaurant, it can protect the employer's personal property and ensure that employees receive reasonable compensation. When an employee suffers a minor work-related injury, Mr. Xu recommends using employee insurance. Firstly, it will handle business affairs and not cause trouble to the employer. Secondly, if the work-related injury worsens, he can obtain reasonable compensation without causing unnecessary complications. Restaurant Association Chairman Yang Zhengang and Mr. Xu Guofu also brought some reminders to restaurants with liquor licenses. First, keep the invoices purchased from liquor wholesalers, and do not temporarily buy liquor in supermarkets and convenience stores and bring it back to the restaurant. If you temporarily bring it back to restaurants for sale, you will be subject to huge fines. Second, obvious notices should be posted at drinking points to warn that overweight people are not suitable for drinking. The third pair of drunk customers should be prohibited from continuing to sell alcohol. The lecture that day contained both new policy information and practical business examples, which was very useful. In the process of managing a restaurant, specific problems encountered can also be asked for free on the spot. Some restaurant owners will also tell other operators about the lessons they have learned in management. The Alberta Chinese Restaurant Association will continue to provide similar lectures to members, and all members are welcome to participate.
