Food Safety Resources
Tuckshop food safety policies and procedures are essential for ensuring you are serving food that is safe for the school community.
In this section you will find resources like policies, templates and fact sheets to help you put the right procedures in place.
QAST recommends that every tuckshop should have a Food Safety Supervisor on staff, regardless of requirements under government guidelines. Aside from this, we also recommend everyone working or volunteering in the tuckshop complete our free, online Safe Food Handlers course.
