Food Hygiene Training
A commitment to 'ONE HEALTH'
Food Hygiene:
Food hygiene training is fundamentally important. All personnel should be aware of their role and responsibility in protecting food from contamination or deterioration. Food handlers should have the necessary knowledge and skills to enable them to handle food hygienically.
Systems should be in place to ensure that food handlers remain aware of all procedures necessary to maintain the safety and suitability of food. All personnel involved in the food chain must be given training on all the aspects of food hygiene to produce food with safety. Training programs should be routinely reviewed and updated where necessary.
