About the course

All retail, hospitality and food service businesses need to appoint at least one Food Safety Supervisor (FSS) per premises if food they prepare and serve is:

  • ready-to-eat,

  • potentially hazardous, that is, needs temperature control, and

  • NOT sold and served in the supplier's original package.

Food Safety Supervisors (FSS) oversee day-to-day food handling operations and ensure risks are managed. The NSW FSS program helps businesses meet their obligations under the Food Standards Code, NSW Food Act and Food Regulation.
