Managing Food Allergens
in Catering and Manufacturing Premises
Why Food Allergy Training?
The EU food labelling rules agreed in 2011 make it mandatory from December 2014 to declare the use of specified 14 allergens, regardless of whether the food is pre-packed or not pre-packed. These EU regulations cover everything from loose food in shops to food sold in restaurants, pubs, takeaways, contract caterers, food stalls, as well as food being delivered.
Managing Food Allergens course is designed to help food handlers identify allergens, label foods correctly and ensure they have sufficient knowledge to keep their customers safe from harm.
Retail outlets such as shops and supermarkets selling prepacked food must extend their allergen declarations to their non-prepacked products. A variety of other businesses and institutions providing non-prepacked food includes childcare and healthcare facilities, detention centres as well as meals provided or delivered free of charge by charitable institutions or organisations.
