Sumario:The objective was to evaluate the nutritional adequacy of the lunch menu of a hotel company registred in the Worker Feeding Program (WFP) to the nutritional parameters established by the program legislation. Descriptive study, carried out in 2019, based on the analysis of the seven-day lunch menu served to employees of a hotel company registered in the WFP, located in Maceió, Alagoas. The nutritional composition of the meal was calculated using the Brazilian Food Composition Table, using the ingredients and per capita described in the company's technical preparation sheets. The values obtained were compared to the nutritional parameters established in Interministerial Ordinance No. 66/2006. The data were tabulated and analyzed using Epi-Info 6.04. The energy value of the menus varied between 726.4 kcal and 1196.2 kcal. There was no adequacy of proteins, fibers and NdPCal% to the nutritional parameters and 100% adequacy of the percentage of saturated fats. The daily supply of fruits and vegetables was found in all menus. Considering that the proposed parameters are aimed at promoting worker health, it is necessary for the company to adapt the menus offered, especially with regard to proteins and fibers.
