A new food safety management standard in the Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) Safe Food Australia Code will come into effect for foodservice and retail businesses on December 8, 2023.
The new Standard 3.2.2A, “Food Safety Management Tools,” introduces requirements for training for food handlers and supervisors, and defines key actions at critical points to help mitigate food safety risks. Safe Food Australia has been updated to incorporate guidance on the new standard for government enforcement agencies and food businesses.
