Food handlers are legally required to possess knowledge of the 14 food allergens and understand the importance of handling allergenic foods with care. Our Allergen training course is designed to educate learners on distinguishing between food allergies and intolerances, recognizing allergic reactions and symptoms, identifying the 14 allergens and the products containing them. It also covers the responsibilities of operators, requirements for pre-packed food labels, and essential considerations to ensure customer safety. This course is suitable for food handlers across various sectors including production, packaging, distribution, processing, retail, and catering.
It’s crucial to acknowledge that there are currently no known cures for food allergies and intolerances, and in severe cases, they can be life-threatening. By ensuring your employees are adequately trained, you not only protect your company legally but also safeguard the health of your customers.
