Training in food hygiene and safety is mandatory in Germany for all companies that handle perishable foods. This requirement is based on several interrelated regulations. EU Regulation No. 852/2004 on food hygiene requires that all persons who handle food receive training in food hygiene appropriate to their duties. Section 4 of the Food Hygiene Regulation (LMHV) specifies the requirements for Germany and mandates regular training for employees. In addition, Section 43 of the Infection Protection Act (IfSG) stipulates that employees who handle perishable food must receive initial instruction from the public health department before starting work and subsequent instruction from their employer at least every two years thereafter. Documented hygiene training helps you fulfill these obligations in a transparent manner. The initial training under § 43 IfSG remains unaffected by this; it can only be conducted by the public health department.
All employees who produce, handle or distribute perishable food.
