Abstract
Food handlers are one of the factors that lead to food contamination due to
direct contact of the preparation, cleaning, processing, transporting and serving

transmit to public community and patients in the hospital. The carrier is a source of
contamination which is more important than case with clinical symptoms that carrier
detection is important as a preventive measure and control the transmission of
disease especially food handlers. This research method was descriptive laboratory to
identify aerobic bacteria of enteric pathogens among rectal swab food handlers at
Nutrition Installation of X Hospital. Data was collected by identifying of bacteria
Salmonella sp, Shigella sp and Vibrio Cholerae on feces specimens was taken
through rectal swab food handlers class II and III. The results of rectal swab
examination obtained 7 people were positive (33.3%) containing aerobic bacteria of
enteric pathogens. Out of 7 people, 5 people were positive Salmonella sp (23.8%) and
2 people were positive Shigella sp (9.5%). This research showed that the health
status and qualified personnel of food handlers were not in accordance with
