Supervising Food Safety – Level 3
Course Description
This course is designed for managers and supervisors to help them understand their essential dayto-day responsibilities.
When a candidate passes this course, they will receive a certificate which demonstrates that they
can supervise and train staff to handle food safely and hygienically.
This is a comprehensive course which starts with basic definitions of key words, then follows a
logical path through other topics including the types of food hazards, personal hygiene, pest control,
legislation, enforcement, and the design and cleaning of food premises and equipment. It also
discusses how to implement a successful food safety management system.
There’s a wide range of topics because maintaining food safety and food hygiene is vital if you’re to
reduce the risk of food poisoning. The correct Food Safety Management System, professionally run,
protects your customers, your staff, and the reputation of your company.
Target Audience
This course is aimed at supervisors and first line managers working in the food industry as well as
small business owners responsible for running their premises and ensuring their staff are working
safely and to the expected standards. It is also a natural progression from the level 2 courses in food
safety and HACCP management for those who are taking on more responsibilities.
Advantages
Food business owners, supervisors and managers have legal duties in UK and EU law to ensure that
they and their staff work and prepare food safely and in compliance with good practice.
Online training is flexible, efficient and cost-effective, so candidates can progress through the
modules at their own pace, in their own time, making it easy to fit the training around their work
and personal life.
