Does Vermont require allergen awareness training?

No, the VDH does not currently require anyone in the food industry to complete allergen awareness training. However, PICs must be prepared to demonstrate allergen awareness during a health inspection and to teach their staff about the major food allergens. Additionally, legislators recently proposed HB 2090, which would create mandatory standards for training on food allergy awareness.

What do Vermont food workers need to know about food allergens?

Anyone working in the foodservice industry should be able to identify the major food allergens, understand how to prevent cross contact, and handle allergic reaction incidents with confidence.
