SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS – FOOD HANDLERS
Food handlers are those concerned with preparing and serving unwrapped food.
Food handlers should report any instance of sickness, diarrhoea and/or stomach upset experienced either while at work or during a holiday to a member of the Personnel Management team. Any infections of ear, nose, throat, mouth, chest or skin should also be reported to a member of the Personnel Management team.
Food handlers need to have an annual dental examination by the company dentist.
Alternatively, a current certificate of dental fitness may be produced from their own dentist.
This applies to all permanent staff who handle food.
