For Feature 40 Part 1, in lieu of allergen labelling, projects may have food allergen experts on their staff. All kitchen, cafeteria, or similar staff should have the option to participate in allergen training at no cost and at least one trained staff member must be present at all shifts. In addition, point-of-decision signage must be present to prompt individuals to report any potential allergies to staff. As part of the Documentation Review, projects should provide an example certificate of completion for staff members who have completed the food allergy training. Signage is subject to a spot check during performance review.
