Safety
and health are one of the most important facets of the food industry,
whether working or learning.
The importance
of safety and health is reflected in the core units of all food
industry training packages and units of competence. Assessment of
competence requires demonstrations or simulations to also clearly
demonstrate safe working practices.

|
It is
important that all people participating in training, learning and
development are able to undergo their learning in a safe and healthy
work environment.
