Food Safety & Hygiene (HACCP Basics)

Food Safety & Hygiene are critical for organisations involved in catering, hospitality, industrial camps, facility management, healthcare, food production, and logistics. Contaminated food can lead to foodborne illnesses, operational shutdowns, legal penalties, and reputational damage. Ensuring safe food handling practices is essential for maintaining public health and meeting regulatory requirements.

This course equips participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to implement food hygiene standards, control contamination risks, apply HACCP principles, manage food storage, and maintain safe food preparation environments. It aligns with Codex Alimentarius, HACCP, ISO 22000, and GCC food safety regulations.
