This Food Allergen Training Course has been written for people who work with food; whether it’s food production, processing, packaging, distribution, food retail, or catering. Anyone who works with food needs to know about allergens and allergen labeling. They particularly need to be aware of the changes to prepacked for direct sale (PPDS) food labelling that came into force on the 1st of October 2021 (in Wales, England, and Northern Ireland). In the UK it’s estimated that 2 million people have an allergy to foods. Between 1998 and 2018, at least 30,700 people were admitted to the hospital for anaphylaxis caused by a food trigger. As there is no cure for food allergies, they must be managed and the only way to do this is to avoid the foods which cause the allergy. It is therefore important that people with food allergies can easily find out which products contain the ingredients they are allergic to. In order to comply with the new UK Food Information Amendment (also known as Natasha’s Law), everyone working in the food industry is required to understand how to make this information readily available to consumers should they need to know. Our Food Allergy Training course is the perfect online course for anyone working with food – It’s engaging, cost-effective and it only takes 35 minutes to complete!
