The basics<\/p>\n

What applies from 2026<\/h2>\n

Since 1 January 2026 a single framework of mandatory training has applied to the staff of food businesses (Ministerial Decision 110581\/2025, Government Gazette B\u2019 2161\/06.05.2025). Every food business must train all staff who handle food<\/strong>, in line with Regulation (EC) 852\/2004.<\/p>\n

KEK KEPETH, as a certified Lifelong Learning Centre, delivers the basic 8-hour programme. It is for people working in:<\/p>\n
