Data analysis revealed that the group has a sense of sanity to the microbiological risks of food, health risks to consumers, and revealed the effects of knowledge on hygienic handling of food. In view of the handler food safety is shared between the manipulator, the company and the consumer. So, were considered as factors that facilitate the health of food in Bakeries personal values, ethics and responsibility of each handler; recognize the company's commitment to provide the resources needed for appropriate practices and motivating role of the client with the requirement of quality products. However, point out what needs improvement, being considered complicating factors: unhealthy physical conditions, with excess heat and smoke in the environment, damaged equipment, insufficient staff and lack of adherence by all handlers of the team.
