Abstract
This study was aimed to evaluate the relation of food hygiene knowledge and practices of the contract foodservice employees and housewives. The employees were mainly sampled using convenience sampling method and surveyed through the questionnaire. The SPSS 12.0 was used for statistical analysis: data frequency, t-test, one-way ANOVA. The scores of the contract foodservice employees were higher in personal hygiene and time-temperature control from hygiene knowledge category and in cleaning & sanitizing, and time-temperature control from hygiene practice category than those of housewives. The level of hygiene knowledge improved with continuous education, and people aged over 51 year showed better score in hygiene practices than those of age 20${\sim}$35. The score of hygiene knowledge or hygiene practices were higher in the group who graduated front middle or high school than the group who had MS degree, because they might have the good hygiene habit or behavior from the continuous education about the food hygiene.
