Do I need to send all my workers for any medical treatment or examination before they are allowed to handle food?

Updated by SFA
We wish to inform you that SFA no longer requires food handlers regardless locals or foreigners to undergo mandatory typhoid vaccination. However, we wish to remind you and your food hygiene officers, to maintain high standards of good manufacturing and hygiene practices at all times. Food handlers should not be permitted to prepare food if they have diarrhoea, fever or are feeling unwell.
