The most important reason for food handlers to understand and apply food safety knowledge is to prevent the spread of illnesses through food.

Food workers play a critical role in ensuring food safety, those who do not practice proper personal hygiene, including hand washing at appropriate times and using appropriate methods can contaminate food. It is therefore; very important for food workers to understand and apply food safety measures so as to prevent spread of diseases through food.
