Food Safety

The Oregon Health Authority Foodborne Illness Prevention Program works in partnership with local health departments, the food service industry and the public to reduce or eliminate the known causes of foodborne illness. The program provides technical assistance, training and education, coordinates rulemaking, supports the statewide licensing and inspection system and oversees the Food Handler Card program.

Web Portal for Inspection Reports

Notice:  Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there may be gaps in inspection data from early 2020 through 2022 as Environmental Health Departments across Oregon supported their offices in managing the pandemic response.  

We have completed a statewide rollout of updated software to allow county offices to better serve the licensed facility operators in Oregon.  With this update, we now have a new look to our web portal showing inspection reports for food, public pool and lodging facilities, such as restaurants, swimming pools and hotels across Oregon.

The site shows semi-annual, biennial and annual routine inspections as well as reinspections.  

**Please note that there is a 14-day lag from the date of inspection until it is shown on the website**
