Food Safety Seminar in Canada Bay

Council is facilitating a one day accredited course for local businesses to meet new food safety requirements.

The NSW State Government has indicated that tough new rules will be introduced in 2010 which will require Restaurants, Cafes and takeaway shops to employ a specially trained food hygiene supervisor to oversee food hygiene, storage, preparation and handling.

The one day course will provide training for people who handle or prepare food in restaurants, hotels, clubs, commercial catering establishments, bars, takeaway shops, food factories, butcher shops and food stores.  It is designed to improve their understanding in hygienic food handling practices and to ensure that food is prepared in a safe, hygienic and high quality manner.

The course will be held on Tuesday, 3 November at Five Dock Library.  Cost is $85 per person including lunch.  To reserve your place, please email business@canadabay.nsw.gov.au.
