How long is a food hygine certificate actually vaid for (uk)?
My basic food hygine certificate was taken in october 1998. It says on the back that you should train every three years. Does that mean that my certificate is vaild i just shouldn't put it on display for people to see i did my training ten years ago? I am booked for refresher training but i need to know that i will be covered for the next few weeks.
Answers:
Yes, three years. I just re did mine.
I am not sure you will be covered. Check with the environmental health department at your local council. You don't need to give your name.
When I worked for a large bakery we were covered if the staff did a basic induction, and an actual H&H course within 12 weeks, however that may have just been our policy.
3 years i think.
3 years - so obviously yours is now out of date!
