    Do you have questions about HACCP training? 🧡

    I am opening my restaurant. Is HACCP training mandatory?

    If you hold a professional qualification such as a CAP, BEP or vocational baccalaureate in catering, awarded after 2006, you will have received HACCP training as part of your course. In this case, you are not required to take the 14-hour HACCP certification course described below.
    If you do not have a professional qualification, or if no one in your team does, you are required to take HACCP training provided by a certified organization.
    Your restaurant must have at least one person trained in HACCP, who will be the designated person responsible for HACCP. This person may either hold a professional qualification or have completed HACCP certification training.

    Who must hold an HACCP certificate in a restaurant?

    You must appoint an HACCP manager in your restaurant. This HACCP manager may be the manager of the establishment or an employee. They are the point of contact for questions related to good hygiene practices. Appointing an HACCP manager has been mandatory since 2012.
    This person may be appointed after completing a 14-hour certification course or because they hold a professional qualification in catering or the food industry obtained after 2006.

    Is Octopus HACCP training certified?

    Octopus HACCP publishes and markets an HACCP application. As such, our teams are highly knowledgeable on all topics related to HACCP and can advise and train you on good hygiene practices. However, as Octopus HACCP does not market HACCP training courses, we are not a Qualiopi-certified organization and do not issue HACCP certifications.
    But just because our free HACCP training courses are not certified does not mean that they are not useful and tailored to the needs of the food and catering industries. So take advantage of them, they’re free!

    Faut-il former mes équipes à l’HACCP ?

    Comme tous professionnels de la restauration, vous avez l’obligation de vous assurer que vos équipes en cuisine, mais aussi en salle, respectent les bonnes pratiques d’hygiène, et la règlementation liée à l’HACCP.
    Les formations gratuites proposées par Octopus HACCP vous permettent de former tout au long de l’année vos collaborateurs. En effet, une piqûre de rappel sur un sujet précis comme la traçabilité, les contrôles de température ou le bon suivi du plan de nettoyage, est toujours utile.

    What services does Octopus HACCP offer in addition to free HACCP training?

    Octopus HACCP offers its customers an HACCP application that can be tailored to the needs of professionals: traceability, temperature control, cleaning and disinfection plans. We digitize your Health Control Plan, and if you don’t have one, we help you implement good hygiene practices in your restaurant.
    At Octopus HACCP, you get much more than just an app: we offer you real support to answer your questions on a daily basis and simplify your HACCP reporting.
