This bitesize training event provides a useful refresher to environmental health officers, food safety officers, and chefs of how E. coli can spread and how this can be prevented.
E. coli is one of the bacteria that has a low infective dose which can cause severe illness and even death. The human and financial costs of such cases can be immense for both patients, their families, and food businesses.
With a focus on prevention, this short session will explore simple controls to reduce the risk of E. coli in the catering and hospitality industry.
