Why are Board of Health Standards Different?
I work for a food establishment in NJ USA. The NJ Board of Health has strict standard regarding food prep such as:hats and hairnets must be worn, we cant have facial hair or a beard net must be worn, gloves must be warn and changed frequently, watches and/or jewelery cannot be worn on hands or arms etc...Yet I never see these laws being applied in a diner or restaurant where a lot of raw foods are handled and a lot of sweating takes place over the ovens. Why would the standards be different from one establishment to another?

They're not different, but enforcement is left up to Local Boards of Health who have different "enthusiasm" for enforcement. That isn't to say that there is anything illicit going on, because in most cases its not, but some inspectors concentrate on different priorities when making the inspections.
A family member owned a food establishment in NJ and depending on which of the two inspectors showed up during the annual inspection would determine some of the minor stuff that they would look at.
