The overall viable bacterial count before Good Hygiene Practices was significantly higher (P<0.05) than the total bacterial counts after Good Hygiene Practices. The highest viable bacterial counts before Good Hygiene Practices were recorded by food cutting boards (4.03±0.20) log10 cfu/cm2, while (3.90±0.23, 3.51±0.18, 3.00±0.18) log10 cfu/cm2 from tables, hands and nails of workers and knives respectively. Although the results showed a non-significant difference in the viable bacterial counts after Good Hygiene Practices from 10 restaurants collected from the AL-Karkh area. The percentages were (100%) after the training and lecture about Good Hygiene Practices to all checklist points except special basins for washing hands was (90%). However, the results of the General Information of food handlers of Good Hygiene checklist and Personal Hygiene Checklist showed that there were significant differences (P≤0.05) between the self-reported attitudes of food handlers before the one-week training and after Good Hygiene Practices.
