Campden announces allergens seminar

The food service industry has a duty of care to its customers to ensure that they are safe from harm, notes Campden BRI, who point out that food allergens are a potentially life threatening risk to some customers whilst being entirely benign to others. When dealing with real world situations, there can be grey areas and uncertainty not covered by legislation and guidance documents, the company claims.

In response, Campden BRI is offering a seminar, to be held on 27 June, which it says will bring together food allergen experts with the food service industry to address the difficult decisions and less well defined areas.

Topics will include:

+ Food allergen threshold doses and risk assessment

+ Allergen labelling and menu requirements

+ Good practice guidance

+ Case studies – court cases and good practice

+ Gluten-free new product development
