Why is Food Safety Training in Dubai Important?

The quality of food is of paramount importance. But its safety is an even more prominent concern when it comes to restaurants, cafe, cafeteria, food storage facilities, meat stalls, fish stalls, food transportation businesses and any other area where handling food is part of the job.

The training is divided and categorised by the risk involved. Some of the employees handle food directly. For example, a waiter / waitress can easily contaminate food if they are ill or not following personal hygiene.

It is important not to cause food poisoning knowingly or unknowingly. There are many passive reasons like food handlers being ill or lacking a proper storage system, low quality freezing methods, and improper handling. It is essential to adhere to practices like reporting illness, improving personal hygiene, being careful about cross-contamination and more.

After successful completion of Food Safety Training, you will be able to implement a proper system for food handling, improved care by employees regarding personal hygiene and adhere to high standards of food hygiene.
