Penjamah makanan memiliki peran penting dalam memastikan keamanan makanan untuk mencegah terjadinya keracunan makanan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik (KAP) tentang higiene dan sanitasi makanan pada penjamah makanan yang bekerja di kantin Universitas Andalas, Padang, Indonesia.

Metode: Desain penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan menggunakan cross sectional study. Pengumpulan data pada tahun 2020 melibatkan 52 penjamah makanan. Data dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan kuesioner. Data dianalisis secara univariat dan bivariat dengan uji chi square CI 95%(α=0,05).

Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukan 65,4% penjamah memiliki pengetahuan baik, 53,8% memiliki sikap baik dan 52% memiliki praktik baik tentang higiene dan sanitasi makanan. Ada hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat pendidikan (p= 0,003), pelatihan higiene dan sanitasi makanan (p=0,05), pengetahuan (p=0,005), dan sikap (p=0,006) dengan praktik higiene sanitasi makanan.

Simpulan: Penjamah makanan lebih banyak yang memiliki pengetahuan, sikap dan praktik yang baik, namun beberapa aspek tindakan personal hygiene seperti penggunaan masker, sarung tangan dan celemek pada saat pengolahan dan penyajian makanan perlu ditingkatkan.
