PEAL and PAL: New Food Allergen Labelling Laws

Dietitians working with patients with food allergy and in food service need in depth knowledge of food allergen labelling. This webinar is a deep dive into FSANZ’s new Plain English Allergen Labelling (PEAL) laws that take effect as of 25 February 2024.

 

The webinar aims to update members on the transition to Plain English Allergen Labelling (PEAL) and risk assessments behind Precautionary Allergen Labelling (PAL) on food packaging, and what it means for patients and foodservice. 

This webinar is brought to you by the Dietitians Australia Education Centre (2024). 

 

PEAL and PAL: What the new Food Allergen Labelling Laws mean for patients and food service.

Application into practice: 

- By thoroughly understanding the new food allergen labelling requirements, dietitians will be able to provide sound advice to patients and training to food service staff about finding allergen information on packaged foods during the transition period to Plain English Allergen Labelling.

- Dietitians will be able to help patients with food allergy, and food services catering to allergies, assess and interpret risk when deciding if products with Precautionary Allergen Labelling statements are appropriate to eat.
