Food Allergen Management in Catering (RQF) (LMS)

Give food handlers the knowledge around allergens to handle food confidently.

Many people have issues around food intolerances, some of which can impact on their health in the short and long term, and in rare circumstances even be fatal. Having the knowledge around allergens and intolerances will help you and your team to keep the public safe.

The Highfield Level 3 Award in Food Allergen Management in Catering (RQF) is aimed at learners involved in the purchase, delivery, production and service of food in the catering industry, or who own or manage a smaller catering business.

It has been designed to provide knowledge and understanding of control of food ingredients, including allergens, at all stages of food purchase and production.

Its topics are regarded by the Foods Standards Agency as being important to maintaining good practice in the production of safe food. It is also supported by Allergy UK, who regard it as suitable staff training for catering outlets that wish to apply for their Allergy Aware Scheme.

Topics include:

• The manager’s role in ensuring food ingredients are effectively managed
• Accurate communication of ingredient information from supplier to consumer
• The importance of practical controls to reduce the risk of allergenic contamination
• Methods of managing ingredient controls and procedures
