Food Safety Supervisor Course (FSS)

As mandated by the NSW Food Act 2003, hospitality and retail food service businesses in NSW are required to have a designated Food Safety Supervisor to ensure safe food handling practices and reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses. This legislation requires refresher training every five (5) years to stay compliant.
