How to comply with the Food Information Regulations (FIR) 2014
December 2014 is when the Regulations (FIR) came into force - it's all about having allergen controls in the business and the communication of allergen information to consumers.
We can provide businesses with our popular half day Food Allergen training session, to help you and your staff understand how to comply with the FIR Regulations.

Food Allergy & Special Diets Awareness

Who should attend...

Whilst some people avoiding particular food ingredients will be making a personal, ethical or lifestyle choice, some will become ill or even die if they eat the wrong food.

If you prepare, serve or sell food to others you need to understand how to protect people who are allergic to particular ingredients and those who are avoiding specific foods due to other dietary requirements.

The new Food Information Regulations (enforceable from 13th December 2014), require caterers to control the key 14 food allergens from purchase through to service and provide accurate information to consumers on the 14 main food allergens in their dishes.

It is important to control allergy contamination risks within the food business and be aware of the implications of Special Diets to consumers. This course is suitable for food handlers, supervisors, managers and chefs or anyone with a particular interest in the subjects.
