Having a Food Safety Supervisor is a legal requirement for all food businesses in certain states and territories of Australia (New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, Australian Capital Territory). This is to ensure the quality and consistency of food safety practices at food businesses and to minimise the risk of foodborne illnesses.
The Food Safety Supervisor Certificate Refresher course is delivered via e-learning (online), which provides learners with the flexibility to study at their own pace in their own time. Once you have completed the Food Safety Supervisor course and achieved a passing grade (and provided us with a copy of your prior CH FSS certificate), you will be able to download, save and print a PDF copy of your certificate.
