Food Safety Supervision

A Food Safety Supervisor is a person who:

• is trained to recognise and prevent risks associated with food handling in a retail food business

• holds a current FSS certificate (no more than five years old),

• is not an FSS for any other food premises or mobile catering business, and

• can train and supervise other people in the business about safe food handling practices.

Food Safety Supervisors will need to complete training in 2 units of competency within the Vocational Education and Training (VET) system, and hold a current FSS certificate. The legislation also requires refresher training every five years.

Student Support:

Learners will receive feedback after each assessment/assignment and the trainer/assessor will be available to discuss the feedback or provide additional assistance or direction as appropriate. Trainers/assessors are also available by email/phone for any discussion or problems that students experience during their study.
