Food Safety Supervisor - Online

Under the Queensland Food Act 2006, VIC Food Act 1984 and NSW Food Act 2003, every licensable food business in Queensland, VIC and NSW is required to have a trained and registered Food Safety Supervisor.

Southbank Institute of Technology is a Registered Training Organisation and a leader in online food safety training. Our food safety supervisor course meets Australian legal requirements and provides a comprehensive understanding of food safety in the workplace.

Proper food safety is everyone’s responsibility. In order to keep your customers, your staff and your work place safe, you need to ensure safe food practices are carried out. Our 100% online course is a convenient and cost effective way to be sure you or your employees are handling food correctly.

The Food Safety Supervisor course prepares you with an extensive understanding of the role a food safety supervisor must play within the workplace. We ensure you have all the required skills and knowledge to implement and manage a food safety program from identifying hazards to corrective actions, critical control points to operational policies and procedures.
The business' Food Safety Supervisor is a person who:

• knows how to recognise, prevent and alleviate the hazards associated with food handling at your premises;

• has the ability and authority to supervise other people handling food at your premises and ensure that food handling is done safely.

Anyone can be a Food Safety Supervisor including the business owner, manager or an employee, provided they meet the criteria detailed above.
