Food Safety Level 2

The Food Safety Level 2 webinar is a comprehensive training program aimed at providing learners with the knowledge and skills required to prepare and handle food safely by current food safety practices. The course is designed to be completed in six hours, during which time participants will be introduced to a range of topics related to food safety.

The course aims to help learners identify potential hazards in the workplace and take appropriate steps to minimize risks associated with them. Participants will learn about food storage, preparation, and handling techniques, as well as the importance of personal hygiene and how to prevent cross-contamination.

The webinar covers a wide range of food safety topics, including food poisoning and foodborne illnesses, food allergies and intolerances, temperature control, and cleaning and disinfection. Additionally, the course includes information on the legal requirements and responsibilities of those working in the food industry.

Successful completion of the Food Safety Level 2 webinar leads to the issuance of a certificate that is valid for three years. This certification verifies that the learner has completed the training and has the necessary knowledge and skills to prepare and handle food safely by current food safety practices. The certificate can be used as evidence of training and may be required by employers or regulatory bodies in the food industry.
