Allergen Awareness and Control in Food Processing January 17, 2013

This food allergen training will provide the attendees with insights into the sources and control of common food allergens in the food processing operations.

Why Should You Attend :

Allergen and mislabeling are one of the leading causes of Class 1 FDA Recalls. At a rate of 2 recalls per week, manufacturers bear the cost of the loss in sales as well as the loss of regulatory and consumer confidence. The FDA maintains a vigorous sampling of labels and products for undeclared allergens to protect sensitive consumers. It is critical that manufacturers take their responsibility very seriously as the effects on the consumer can be deadly.

This webinar will cover best practices that prevent cross contamination and inadvertent inclusion of allergens in food products where they are not intended to be. Those involved in the food safety and handling programs within the manufacturing process must be aware of their role and prepared to execute these practices. Each department has an important part to be played in the control of allergens and identity preservation.
