HLTFSE001 – Follow Basic Food Safety Practices

Course description:

This Nationally Recognised Course  HLTFSE001 Follow Basic Food Safety Practices is designed for individuals working in roles that involve handling food, specifically in health and community sectors.

It is ideal for workers who prepare, provide, and serve food primarily to vulnerable groups including the elderly, children and infants, pregnant women, and people with medical conditions, immune deficiencies, or allergies.

Participants are required to demonstrate their practical food safety skills and knowledge through a third-party observation form. These assessments can take place in any food handling environment such as commercial kitchens, catering production lines, or food preparation areas that are equipped with standard industry facilities.

Observations may occur at the participant’s place of work or through volunteering at community centres, sports clubs, or local councils. Please note: It is essential for students to be employed or to secure a volunteer role in a suitable workplace that can provide a third-party observer.

This observer is responsible for witnessing and documenting the student’s practical performance using a third-party report form.
