Find out moreIt is critical that everyone responsible for preparing, handling and packaging food is fully aware of what could trigger an allergic reaction, and understands the precautions that must be taken.
Food that might be perfectly safe for one person to eat may also be harmful to another, resulting in allergic reactions that can range from mild to life-threatening.
In addition to the danger to public health, this can create risks for organisations managing food items across any part of its cycle, from production to plate. There are large fines in place for non-compliance with strict government regulations, in addition to the risk to the success and reputation of your organisation.

This training programme covers the basics of food allergen awareness. It will teach learners about the foods that commonly trigger allergic reactions and the vital information that needs to be communicated to consumers.
This course also covers the legal responsibilities of allergen labelling and allergen declaration which will enable learners to comply with their duties under the EU General Food Law Regulation No.178/2002, the Food Information Regulations 2014 and the Food Safety Act 1990.
It will also ensure that your employees and business are aware of how to comply with the UK Food Information Amendment, also known as Natasha’s Law, which came into effect on 1 October 2021. This requires all businesses in England, Northern Ireland and Wales to provide full lists of ingredients and allergen labelling on foods prepacked for direct sale (PPDS) on the premises.
This course will develop your knowledge and raise awareness of food allergens.
You will learn about the characteristics of food allergens and intolerances, the importance of allergen management and the requirements of providing correct allergen information to consumers.
