Whether you’re a professional chef, a home cook, or a volunteer serving food at an event, food safety training is essential.
It’s more than just washing your hands—it’s about knowing how to store, handle, and prepare food in a way that prevents illness and keeps everyone safe.
Every year, millions of people get sick from foodborne illnesses, many of which could be prevented with proper food handling.
Training ensures that food is kept at safe temperatures, cross-contamination is avoided, and hygiene standards are met.
By getting trained in food safety, you’re not just protecting your customers —you’re building trust and showing that you care about their health and well-being.
Let’s make food safe, one meal at a time!
Food Safety Training is truly essential. There are many people around the island who are setting up stalls and selling food and the food is not even safe to our health. some people are getting sick after buying these food. some of the food are not even cooked properly
Very good initiatives from these groups.
I must say. Indeed. There are a lot of good safety procedures that are not being practiced by these food vendors that are selling all over the place! Even the Syrians and Chinese.
This should be mandatory for all restaurants and food vendors. The safety of their customers should always be priority. Many can tell a tale and have complains
It is indeed essential. We have too many untrained nasty people preparing and serving food. Thats why Im very picky who I eat from cause really and truly its getting out of hand.
They just start selling food and it cold so what does that say? Fix up ah you self
