Our Food Safety Early Years online training course by EYPServices is a Level 2 equivalent qualification. It is designed to give cooks, practitioners and those preparing and handling food within early years settings the knowledge that they need to fulfil their duties safely.
Why is this course important?
Failure to comply with good hygiene and safe food handling practices can lead to food poisoning, loss of reputation and heavy financial and in some cases criminal penalties.
It is a legal requirement that those handling food have the appropriate training and knowledge to complete their work safely. It is best practice that all members of staff have undertake training to further ensure the safety of the children.
This level 2 equivalent course ensures that your legal duty to provide and undertake relevant training is met.
