    The objective of this research was to conduct a situational analysis of the hygienic–sanitary conditions of food handlers in wholesale markets in downtown Lima. A quantitative study was carried out using a non-experimental, observational, cross-sectional, descriptive design. Data were collected through a sanitary inspection checklist between January and June 2017, which included items such as sanitary habits, presentation of a training certificate in Good Food Handling Practices, and possession of a valid health card. The results show that 78.5% of food handlers do not apply Good Food Handling Practices, 57% present a valid health card, and 46% of food handlers demonstrate inadequate personal hygiene. It is necessary to intensify sanitary inspections, training, awareness, and sensitization of food handlers to ensure compliance with current sanitary regulations. In this way, foodborne diseases could be reduced, thereby lowering risk factors for public health.
