Food safety in Geelong — who’s who
Geelong’s food economy is bigger than its dining strips — food manufacturers, aged-care kitchens, event caterers at GMHBA Stadium and hospitality venues across the Bellarine all need trained supervision. MTI also has an office in Geelong at Level 4/60 Moorabool Street.
This is general information, not legal advice — confirm current requirements for your business with Victorian Department of Health or the City of Greater Geelong.
Who needs a Food Safety Supervisor in Victoria?
Under the Victorian Food Act, all class 1, most class 2 and class 3A food premises must have a Food Safety Supervisor. (Some class 2 community groups that trade for no more than two consecutive days with mostly volunteer staff are exempt.) The FSS needs a Statement of Attainment against the national units.
Renewal: Victoria is the exception: the official Department of Health guidance sets no renewal period and states there is no Victorian requirement to retrain beyond the minimum competencies. Even so, many employers ask staff to refresh their training periodically.
