Managing Allergen Issues

• Benefits of attending
  Allergen contamination is the #1 cause of recalls in Canada, costing the food industry millions of dollars each year. Save your company from costly and agonizing recalls, product withdrawals and law suits, optimize production scheduling and save consumer lives with an in-depth understanding of how to manage allergens in your plant. In this program, you will cover:
  • Day One
    • Intolerance vs. allergic reactions
    • Food allergens, sources/approval of ingredients, Canadian and US regulatory and labelling issues
    • Managing product flow (storage, transportation, production) of allergen-containing products
  • Day Two
    • CFIA's requirements for allergen controls on the nine priority allergens and for written Allergen Management Plans
    • Steps for developing, implementation and testing your Allergen Management Plan
