This course gives you the knowledge and confidence to manage food safety effectively in any food business. You’ll learn what the law requires for food premises, equipment, and transport, as well as how to meet the standards expected by inspectors.

Through practical guidance, the course covers hygienic food handling, temperature control, storage, labelling, and maintaining a clean environment. It also explains how to implement and maintain a strong food safety policy, manage day-to-day practices, and deal with challenges faced by supervisors.

You’ll gain insight into how food hygiene ratings work, why businesses fail to achieve top scores, and how to prepare for inspections. The course also explores pest control, handling complaints, registering a food business, and what to expect during an inspection visit — including how to respond to decisions and appeals.
