Food Handler Basics Training Now Available

Is your food business ready for the 8th December 2023 deadline to be compliant with the new requirements?

Food service, caterer and related retail businesses in Australia need to meet new food safety requirements in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code (the Code) from 8 December 2023.

Standard 3.2.2A is a new food safety standard for these types of businesses that aims to improve food safety and support consumer confidence.

There are three food safety management tools in the new standard and Austrain Academy can assist you to comply (click the links below for more information and to enrol):

Some businesses already require an FSS. The change means that these businesses will also require food handler training (for all food handlers) and if they conduct higher risk activities, the evidence tool as well.

For other businesses, the FSS requirement will be new. The new standard extends the FSS requirement to most food service, caterer and related retail businesses that are currently exempted by NSW food safety laws. These businesses will require FSS and food handler training, and if they conduct higher-risk activities, the evidence tool also. Key examples are school canteens, delicatessens and institutional settings such as gaols.

Take this short quiz to find out if the new requirements apply to your business and how.

FOOD SAFETY – IMPORTANT UPCOMING CHANGES

From 8 December 2023, food service, caterer and related retail businesses in Australia need to meet new food safety requirements in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code (the Code). This includes new types of organisations that were previously exempt (see the list below).

Businesses include, but are not limited to, cafes, restaurants, quick service venues, takeaway shops, pubs and clubs with food service areas, mobile vendors, home-based businesses, caterers, motels, and supermarkets selling potentially hazardous food (e.g. hot-chickens).

From 8 December 2023 the following types of food business are no longer exempt from the FSS requirement:

  • charities and not-for-profit organisations
  • school canteens
  • childcare services, including out of school hours care
  • correctional centres
  • delicatessens
  • supermarkets.

The new standard aims to improve food safety and support consumer confidence.

Businesses that sell potentially hazardous, ready-to-eat food directly to consumers, where there is some form of handling done by the business, are required to appoint an FSS for each premises they operate from. This includes foods ordered through third party ordering apps. (Businesses licensed with the Food Authority do not need an FSS.)

Refer to these links:

We can help you achieve compliance with the new requirements.
For ALL your Food Safety Requirements please call Austrain Academy on 1300 20 40 20 or email to info@austrainacademy.com.au

  • Hospitality Apprentices & Trainees

    The trainees and apprentices who complete training through Austrain finish their training with a higher level of competence than those who have trained with other RTOs. I put this down to the attention provided to each person in training and the practical training sessions our trainees and apprentices are exposed to. I have been involved with approximately 4-5 RTOs for different reasons over approximately a decade in the hospitality and club industry and I can confidently say that my preference is to use Austrain every time.
