and degree to food safety practices based on Food and Drug Administration, 2004 (FDA) assessment method
and practices. The study incorporate interviews, observations, field assessments and discussion with the

satisfactory (6 dining halls) and unsatisfactory (1 dining hall). Food borne illness risk factors that were analyzed
include safe food sources, food storing temperature and stock control, personal hygiene, cross contamination
and safe food holding temperature. The two risks factors were at an acceptable level; safe food sources and
personal hygiene. Safe food sources had achieved 92% and personal hygiene with 92.3% of the compliance
level set by the FDA’s Food Safety Risk Level. Other risk factors; food storing temperature and stock control,
safe food holding temperature and cross contamination were recorded at 74%, 72.5% and 69.6% of the level set
