Dear Friend,

It varies from company to company.

For vegetarians:
1) Roti 4 to 6 (Depending upon weights)
2) Dal
3) Veg - 2 types (one dry, another with gravy)
4) Rice
5) Papad
6) Pickle
7) Green Salad
8) Curd
9) Sweet Dish

For Non-Vegetarians:
Non-veg items can be included (like Eggs/Meat/Chicken) in place of Veg.

Note: Types of Dal and Rice can be changed daily like Dal fry, dal makhani, dal kolhapuri etc. Rice can be served as Steamed rice, jeera rice, masala rice, veg pulao, etc.

Please note that it depends upon the policy of the company.

Hi!

The ideal menu is somewhat similar to one quoted by Shri Rajesh Verma. A vegetarian menu can be made healthier by ensuring that during the week, on different days, Dal (pulses) with high protein content may be served. Gravy sabjis containing enriched vitamin C, and curd which already takes care of vitamin A. Green salad on some days may consist of a combination of tomato and cucumber (the duo consumed together enriches the content of calcium in the body). At least we are ensuring the same in our industry.

Dear Ms. Shweta Kate,

As per rule 85 of the Maharashtra Factories Rules 1963, the Chief Inspector of Factories will direct the manager to provide such foodstuffs to be served in the canteen, which are in general demand. The managing committee of the canteen shall be consulted as to the quality and quantity of foodstuffs to be served and the arrangement of the menu.

The following is the standard diet covered in the canteen menu:

- Chapatis: 3 nos
- One bowl of rice
- One bowl of dal
- One vegetable dish
- Pickle
- Papad
- Salt
- Non-veg items:
- Omelet
- Egg
- Meat
- Chicken/fish
- Snacks:
- Boiled egg/omelet/bread
- Batata vada/bread
- Idli/meduwada/sambar/chutney
- Onion bhajia
- Kanda poha
- Sheera
- Small glass of milk
- Tea/coffee/during summer season, lemon juice, etc.
- Seasonal fruits such as bananas, apples, grapes, chikoos, pear, etc., are also served in the industrial canteen with lunch/dinner.

Furthermore, depending upon the type of industry such as heavy engineering/chemicals, etc., where laborious and hard work is required, milk, fruits, and jaggery are served.

As per the Mumbai High Court Judgment in Godrej Ltd vs. Their Workmen, the court held that non-veg items are not compulsory to be served in the industrial canteen.

I hope this will serve your purpose.

Canteen menus vary from company to company. Whatever the menu of the company, it should be of good quality because a sound body has a sound mind. The menu mainly depends on the location of the company.

It is next to impossible to have a consensus on what would be the ideal menu in any canteen.

The best way is to gather suggestions from actual diners so that they feel their opinions count and are being heard.

Out of the many suggestions, you will be able to implement most because you have to serve food daily for almost 300 days in the year.

My Dear friend,

Menus mentioned by other friends are good. I would like to add some points for you to keep in mind before selecting the canteen food menu:

1. Consider whether the employees working in your factory are from North India or South India because you need to choose the canteen menu according to their state food preferences.
2. Check if your employer allows non-veg food inside the factory premises.
3. Determine if you are providing free meals to employees or offering them at a concessional rate. It's essential to consider that even if you are providing excellent food in the canteen, the amount charged from employees may not be acceptable to them.

I hope you provide excellent food to your employees and receive praise from them.
