Belonging to something is a meaningful behavioral driver, particularly for entry level foodservice workers. The Team Rally Pledge of Professionalism harnesses this motivational power by the individual professional participating in a group pledge, read aloud in their native tongue, signed together and posted in a highly visible location. As new employees are signed on, the manager/trainer can repeat this exercise with a minimum of three people. (If training one, recruit two of your best leaders from the staff as co-trainers and "witnesses".)

Foodservice workers must be good handwashers from day one. This priority and personal accountability can be acieved quickly by

1. showing the language-free HandwashingforLife® video, The Why, The When & The How, followed by
2. executing the ProGrade training instrument and
3. closing with adding their name/s to the Pledge.

This becomes a living poster, to be updated regularly.
