FOODSAFE Level 1 is a food handling, sanitation and work safety course designed for front line food service workers such as cooks, servers, bussers, dishwashers, and deli workers.  The course covers important food safety and worker safety information including foodborne illness, receiving and storing food, preparing food, serving food, cleaning and sanitizing. The BC Health Act: Food Premises Regulation states that every operator of a food service establishment, and at least one employee on every shift must hold a FOODSAFE Level 1 certificate.

This class is free and open to BCGEU members and their families. There is a maximum number of participants for this course and a waiting list will be taken. Cancellations with less than 48 hours' notice prevent us from offering spots to those on the waiting list. 

You will need to bring a brown bag lunch or buy lunch at a location nearby. 

Students must bring their BC Care Card or ID to class
