Tuesday, 27 April 2021

In this short Breakfast Bite, Ruth Conefrey (FSAI) will remind food businesses how they can comply with food safety training requirements.

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) would like to present ‘Breakfast Bites’, a series of free, informal meetings for small food businesses. Here, we provide useful information on the topics you want to know more about.

In this short Breakfast Bite, Ruth Conefrey (FSAI) will remind food businesses how they can comply with food safety training requirements.

This webinar will give food businesses tips and ideas on how they can meet their food safety training needs using resources the FSAI has developed for food businesses. It is suitable for business owners, managers, chefs, caterers and workers who come into contact with food in the course of their work.

The training of food handlers is one of the key ways by which food businesses can ensure that the food they produce is safe to eat. This webinar will demonstrate how FSAI resources can be used to ensure your team are well-trained. A food handler is any person who handles or prepares food whether it is unwrapped or packaged, even if physical contact is only a small part of their work. Food handlers must be supervised, and also instructed and/or trained in food hygiene based on the level of activity they are involved in.

This free event will be held online and will last 40 minutes. There will be an opportunity to ask Ruth questions at the end.

Shortly after registration, you will receive the event link by email which will give you the details on how to join the event on Wednesday, 12 May 2021. In order to join the event on the day, you will need a computer, tablet or smartphone.
