Level 2 & 3 HACCP and Fire Safety Training Package

This training pack is designed to inform learners about the HACCP regulations and provide information, instruction and training to employees about fire precautions in the workplace.

Level 2 HACCP teaches learners about the HACCP regulations for the management of food safety. It is designed to ensure that food handlers know how to comply with the HACCP Food Hygiene guidelines and can confidently implement food safety practices in their workplace.

Level 3 HACCP provides food supervisors and managers with the training they need to implement a successful HACCP system in their workplace. Those trained to Level 3 are able to successfully introduce and monitor food safety regulations, and ensure that employees are suitably trained and competent to work to internationally recognised HACCP standards.

The fire safety course will help learners understand the legal requirements for relating to fire safety. Learners will be shown the best fire prevention techniques, and learn how to recognise warning systems and take the correct response actions. They will learn what key factors are involved in the event of an evacuation, identify different types of fire, and what fire extinguishers should be used.
