Food safety is a critical aspect of public health, especially in food retail where the risk of contamination can be high. A Level 1 course in food safety would typically cover the fundamentals of maintaining a hygienic environment, which includes ensuring the cleanliness of the premises and the personal hygiene of all staff members. Risk control measures are essential to identify potential hazards and implement strategies to mitigate them. Pest control is another vital component, as pests can carry diseases and compromise food integrity. Waste management is also crucial, as improper disposal can lead to pest infestations and increase the risk of contamination. By adhering to these practices, food retail establishments can minimize health hazards and ensure the safety of the food they serve to the public.
