Food Safety

Food Safety is regulated and requires compliance under the Food Act 2014.

All people on orchard have the potential to contaminate fruit and vines through poor hygiene practices.

It is important to know, understand, and manage hygiene-related risks that can occur on the orchard. A risk assessment is an important tool to help you do this.

Based on the risk assessment, contractors must introduce hygiene practices which minimise the identified risks. These practices will help form your ‘Food Safety Policy’.

You will be assessed on:

• Policy & Risk Assessment

• Water

• People Hygiene

• Equipment, Machinery & Services
