The QUALIFI Level 2 Award in Food Safety in Catering (Polish Translation) is an award aimed at Polish speaking food handlers operating within the UK catering and hospitality industries. This includes those involved in all aspects of andling food from delivery, to storage, preparation, cooking and service.
Candidates gaining this award will understand that food safety is the responsibility of everyone involved in all stages and aspects of food production and service. They will gain an insight into the legal basis for safe food production in the UK, and how physical, chemical and micro-biological hazards threaten food safety, and these hazards can be controlled. They will also learn the importance of good personal hygiene, and the food handler’s role in a HACCP based Food Safety
Management system.
The award follows the nationally recognised level 2 syllabus for food handlers (formerly known as the basic food hygiene certificate) and covers professional standards and guidelines placed on all catering premises by Environmental Health (EHOs), the Foods Standards Agency (FSA) and sector skills councils.
