Allergen Refresher for Food Manufacturing

Description

Does your facility produce products with multiple types of allergens? 30% of all recalls stem from problems around allergen labeling. 3rd party audit certification bodies like SQF and BRC now require employees to undergo yearly training to meet their specifications around allergen training.

A 5 question knowledge check, provided by BioNetwork, is included to evaluate participant understanding.
