HACCP Food Safety Level 2

Are you fully aware of the potential risks in your workplace and are you familiar with the pro-active steps you should be taking to eliminate them?

Employees in the food industry are faced with a number of risks on a daily basis and it is the role of each individual to be aware of these risks and to understand the steps that should be taken to effectively manage, or eliminate them. Our Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point course (HACCP) is a great starting point and offers an informative insight into HACCP procedures. The course also adheres to EU requirements to have an effective food safety management system based on the Codex HACCP principles, in operation.

The correct working practice will be taught, enabling you to feel confident in the work environment, as well as a detailed look at food safety and how to avoid the potentially dangerous risk of cross contamination. Helping you to understand the topic thoroughly, the course will also guide you through the legislation in England, Wales and Scotland.

For convenience, the course has been divided into 6 manageable sections that you are free to complete as and when you choose. Regular breaks can be taken (if you wish) and sections can be completed entirely at your pace. A few short questions will be asked at the end of each section to refresh your memory and there will be a final ‘End of Course’ multiple choice quiz that will require you to answer a certain number of questions correctly to pass.
