Do you know what your responsibilities are as a consumer when eating out or purchasing packaged food?
The Food Allergen Management Consensus Statement lists the responsibilities of:
- consumers,
- food manufacturers,
- food service businesses,
- health professionals,
- food retailers; and
- regulatory and enforcement agencies
in regard to food allergen management.
Food allergen management is a shared responsibility and we hope that this statement will help to improve safety of people living with food allergy in Australia.
