As the year begins, the Department of Environmental Health (DEH) resumes its training courses for personnel in the food industry on January 18, 2023. Registration is now open.
The Basic Food Handlers’ training equips participants with sufficient knowledge to prevent food-borne illness caused by food-borne pathogens and other contaminants.
Offered every Wednesday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Red Cross facility, this training applies to all new personnel working in the food industry and anyone wishing to continue as food handlers after expiry must renew their certification which is valid for three years.
Business owners and Food Business Operators are encouraged to act now and register all their food handling personnel for these important workshops, as DEH requires all personnel handling food to be trained.
A registration cost of $15 per person covers all materials and fees should be paid at DEH headquarters, located at 580 North Sound Road, between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.
