Level 2 Food Safety – Retail
RoSPA & IATP Approved
Course Description
Food Handlers and their employers have a legal duty to manage Food Safety.
These obligations are set out by a number of EU and UK Laws.
These Laws state that food handlers must make sure that
food which is prepared, cooked, served or sold, is safe for human consumption.
Failing to follow food safety standards can cause food to become contaminated with potentially fatal consequences.
Training your employees with our online system will go a long way to give them greater awareness
of the dangers that poor food safety standards poses.
