Welcome to FOHESA’s Regulation 638 Compliance Course! Regulation 638 is the bedrock of food safety and hygiene standards in formal food establishments. Our comprehensive program delves into the intricacies of this regulation, which governs everything from general hygiene requirements for food premises to the safe transport of food.

The course is divided into four essential sections: (i) Knowledge, where you’ll grasp the vital information needed for compliance; (ii) Behavior, focusing on the right attitudes and practices; (iii) The Food Premises, addressing the physical aspects of compliance; and (iv) Good Manufacturing Practices, emphasising the highest standards of food production.
