CBH launches new food safety training initiative for Chinese Restaurant owners
This initiative addressed the unique needs of the Mandarin-speaking community, allowing them to engage fully in the training.
Deputy Chief Health Inspector Daryl Spencer emphasized the importance of inclusivity in food safety education. He noted that previous training programs often excluded non-English speaking individuals, highlighting a significant gap in the outreach efforts.
This collaboration was vital to ensure that participants could grasp the key concepts of food safety without language barriers.
Around 45 individuals participated in the session, which covered the “Five Keys to Safe Food.” Participants learned crucial practices such as maintaining cleanliness, ensuring proper food separation, cooking food adequately, and using safe water and raw ingredients.
I hope the Chinese will implement the training they received. It would not be easy for Chinese to take orders or training from any other race of people than their own. Most Chinese businesses in Antigua looks to ghetto.
