Food Hygiene Training

Under The E.C. Regulations 852/2004, proprietors of food businesses must ensure that all food handlers engaged in the food business are supervised, instructed and/or trained in food hygiene matters appropriate to their activities.

Training will relate to the specific job of the individual and also the type of food they handle. Staff who handle high risk foods will need more detailed training than those who handle low risk foods.

Managers or Supervisors of food handlers may need to consider a higher level of training. There are a number of organisations that run suitable courses.

For information on training please contact The Chartered Institute of Environmental Health on 020 79286006.
