Food Allergens in Manufacturing - Target Audience

Living with a food allergy can be very difficult, and those that do must make decisions about the food they eat carefully. This is because consuming even small amounts of an allergen can cause them serious harm.

Food handlers working in a manufacturing business frequently work with allergenic ingredients and raw materials so, to protect allergy sufferers, it is important that they understand allergen management and how to prevent allergenic cross-contamination. They must also be aware of the Food Information Regulations 2014 and how to communicate allergen information to customers and on food labels.

This food allergen awareness course will explore what causes food allergies and how a food manufacturing business can effectively manage them. It is suitable for those working in a manufacturing setting, such as a factory, and anyone involved in the food supply chain.

We have a tailored food allergen training course for those working in a catering or retail environment.

Food Allergens in Manufacturing - Course Overview

Overview

Every food manufacturing business is required by law to have a food safety management system in place based on the 7 principles of HACCP. This is designed to prevent the accidental contamination of food while it is processed. It is also recommended that food businesses have a TACCP system in place to control food fraud and intentional contamination.

Regardless of the systems used, all food manufacturers must have measures in place to prevent allergenic contamination and ensure their products are packaged accurately. They must also make sure that staff are sufficiently trained and understand how to handle allergens safely.

After completing this allergen training course, learners will understand:

The different forms of food hypersensitivity are, along with their symptoms and causes.
The 14 main allergens are and how they are used in food.
Food information legislation and how allergen information must be provided for prepacked and non-prepacked foods.
Precautionary allergen labelling and when it is used.
How allergenic cross-contamination occurs.
The measures that must be taken while preparing and storing food to minimise allergenic cross-contamination.

Further Training

For further food safety training, consider our Level 2 Food Safety for Manufacturing course. This course covers the information required to maintain good food hygiene and safety practices at work. We also offer a HACCP Principles training course, designed to help businesses create an effective food safety management system.

Duration

It takes approximately 30 minutes to complete the course in full. This can be spread out over multiple sessions or completed in a single session. There is no time limit for completion.

All candidates must complete a multiple choice assessment after working through the training material.

The assessment can be retaken as many times as is required to pass at no additional cost.
