Overview

REHIS is the established awarding body in Scotland for qualifications in food hygiene. Food hygiene (or food safety) can be defined as handling, preparing and storing food or drink in a way that best reduces the risk of consumers becoming sick from food-borne diseases. The principles of food safety aim to prevent food from becoming contaminated and causing food poisoning.

This one-day course is aimed at people and organisations that are responsible for food safety management in catering and hospitality establishments.
