Insufficient training for employees in these areas not only puts businesses at risk, but it also endangers the health of consumers. By ensuring all employees have the training to keep ingredients and equipment contaminant-free, businesses can avoid food recalls, reduce illness outbreaks, and comply with government regulations.

Avoid the risk of using outdated materials or oral instructions that can be unreliable. This online food safety training series ensures employees receive consistent and up-to-date information when they are trained. Courses within the program are updated regularly as policies change.
