Who is affected by the new 3.2.2A standard?

Most food businesses in Australia are affected by the new 3.2.2A Standard, across all states and territories.

Specifically, food handlers in a Category 1 or 2 business need to complete a food safety training course or be able to prove to an auditor they have the skills and knowledge required. Our food handler courses meet the requirements of 3.2.2A

Category 1 and 2 includes any food retailer, food service or caterer that handles unpackaged potentially hazardous food (PHF) or that processes unpackaged PHF and sells it as ready-to-eat food. Businesses that handle food for or at a fundraising event only are exempt.
