Course description

An important aspect of food safety is a successful food safety system, and anyone working in the food industry needs to be aware of how this system works.

Businesses may use a system designed to meet their needs, but EU law requires that all food safety systems are based on the HACCP guidelines and so it is important that food staff understand them.

Our Level 3 HACCP training course has been designed for food safety managers, supervisors, team leaders, business owners and anyone responsible for assisting in the development and maintenance of a HACCP system or team.

Those involved in the preperation of food and working with or handling food will need to complete our Level 2 HACCP training course.

HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points, and is a seven-principle system designed to assess and address potential hazards in food industry workplaces. Employers can only show that they are qualified to fulfil their duties safely if their staff are trained in line with the seven principles of HACCP.

Our Level 3 HACCP Training course guides food safety managers and supervisors through the guidelines to successfully implement and monitor the HACCP (stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) seven principles in their workplace. Only by providing effective HACCP training can you ensure that you and your employees are suitably competent to fulfil their duties safely and to internationally recognised HACCP standards.

As they work through the HACCP Level 3 online course, learners will learn about all aspects of HACCP. They will be able to explain the need for a food safety system based on HACCP; how the HACCP principles are used to create a food safety system; how HACCP is applied to the type of food business you work in, and why procedures and documentation are needed to consistently produce safe food.

It is also suitable for small business owners and managers, across the catering and retail sectors, including restaurants, cafes, takeaways, food trucks, school kitchens, bars and pubs. After undertaking this online course, learners will be able to analyse hazards effectively and determine control points in line with established HACCP principles.

Legislation

Legislation covered in this course includes:

The key legislation regarding HACCP is the EU food law, Regulation 852/2004, Article 5. It was introduced on 1st January 2006 making it mandatory that all food businesses both implement and maintain a permanent procedure based on the HACCP system.

This was first just a recommended procedure in the 1990s, but it was soon discovered that failure to implement these procedures could have disastrous consequences for both consumers and business. Therefore, following this law, businesses within the food industry need to put measures in place to protect consumers from unsafe food, and HACCP is considered the best way of achieving this.
