Les recommandations formulées sont le résultat d’une analyse de huit mois des conclusions d’enquêtes et d’études qui ont permis aux partenaires de définir des directives simples et pratiques pour les salariés d’une part et les restaurateurs/chefs cuisiniers d’autre part. Les gestes qu’il est préconisé d’accomplir au quotidien pour une alimentation équilibrée, et qui devraient devenir des gestes naturels, sont indiqués dans le tableau ci-dessous.
Certaines recommandations sont communes aux six pays participants, tandis que d’autres ont été adaptées aux spécificités nationales. Nous vous invitons à les consulter et à comparer les recommandations pour les différents pays !
