The event featured a comprehensive food safety workshop conducted by “Latet Israel,” an organization specializing in food safety training for employees.

Held at the “Yad Beyad” center in Lod, the workshop aimed to provide staff and volunteers with the knowledge and tools necessary to maintain food safety during meal preparation and service. The workshop consisted of three main parts:

 

1. The first part focused on understanding the various levels of risks related to food safety and their impact on daily life. Participants learned about potential hazards and the necessary steps to prevent serious incidents and accidents in the kitchen.

2. The second part addressed the specific needs of food-insecure individuals and their interactions with restaurants and food in general. Participants learned about the unique challenges faced by this demographic and the importance of consulting and asking questions when uncertain, to ensure that the meals they serve are safe and nutritious.

3. The third part concentrated on hygiene and cleanliness in restaurants. Participants learned about kitchen cleaning and maintenance processes, and the importance of adhering to strict hygiene regulations to prevent the spread of bacteria and diseases.

Thank you to “Latet Israel” for their extensive support and guidance throughout the year.
