摘要
This article presents the results of the project Efficient Lowering of Food Waste in the Out-of-Home Sector (ELoFoS). Within the framework of this project, surveys were conducted using standardized questionnaires and guided interviews with experts. The aim was to develop practical recommendations for action to reduce food waste in food services with a self-service buffet and/or a food-serving counter. A total of 32 questionnaires and 7 expert interviews were carried out with kitchen managers from the care and business sector (rehabilitation hospitals, company canteens) were evaluated. Three recommendations for action could be established: (1) implementation of waste monitoring, (2) encouragement of kitchen and service staff, (3) optimisation of the guest area. In addition, various measures were identified for the implementation of the last two recommendations for action. © 2022 Umschau Zeitschriftenverlag Breidenstein GmbH. All rights reserved.
