What Are People Saying
David Christian2024-12-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gillian and Rachael are very professional and knowledgeable. As auditors they are informative and take every opportunity to help staff learn. I recommend the services of Safe Food Australia very highly. Ashley Thomson2024-08-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gillian has been the TP Auditor for my aged care organisation for several years and has completed dozens of Annual Food Safety Audits in each of our facilities. Her experience, knowledge and thoroughness ensures all our sites consistently maintain a high standard of compliance. I highly recommend her services. Cockatours Rossy2020-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gillian really helped me in a time of need! The work she did was brilliant and very timely! I'd just spent 2 weeks doing various other permits and poor Gillian was the last I had to call. I was so exhausted by the other permits, but she spent the time on the phone with me to talk through things, helped me get my Food Safety Program on track and audited and made me feel like there were good people out there again! Thanks a million Gillian, I really, really appreciated it, in the most sincere way possible. You're a gem! Adam MacMillan2019-07-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our Food Safety Program written by Gillian, and from start to finish - she had exceptional communication, great quality of work and was super reliable with all the information she was providing. I highly recommend working with Safe Food Australia.

Eat opened oysters within 24 hours of purchase
Don’t eat oysters that are dry, or sunken into the shell
Don’t eat oysters that have been out of the fridge for more than 2 hours 🦪

Vegetables and fruits in brine, oil or vinegar
Vegetables and fruits pack in oil, vinegar or brine, can provide a favourable environment for pathogens that don’t require oxygen to grow such as Clostridium botulinum. This bacteria can produce dangerous toxins if the food is not processed to reduce pH.
If you are preparing these types of products whether at home or to sell at markets, control measures should be taken to minimise the food safety risks:
• Fruit and vegetables should be acidified to a pH of 4.6 or below before covering with oil, vinegar, brine or water
• Jars, bottles, plastic pouches, must be suitable for use with the food and should be sterile or cleaned and sanitised before use
• Unless processed to be shelf stable (hot packed into hermetically sealed containers) products should be considered to be perishable and stored and distributed under refrigeration
• Shelf life should be validated

Is is a requirement to have a lid on a garbage bin in a food preparation area?
Garbage and recyclable matter needs to be enclosed wherever there is a risk of attracting or harbouring pests and animals. However, in food preparation area, lids on garbage containers are not necessary. Lids can cause inconvenience to staff handling food and can pose a risk of cross contamination if, for example, food handlers touch dirty lids and then touch food or food containers or utensils.

How are your cooling practices? Do you cook and cool food for later use?
Cooling practices must comply with the 2hr/4hr cooling rule to ensure that food poisoning bacteria do not have a chance to multiply to high numbers to make someone sick. Ensure you cool products in shallow containers, place in the fridge, cool room or freezer once the steam has dispersed, the larger the surface area the quicker it will cool.

Understanding date marking on food
Food labels have date marks to inform us about their shelf life. The marks tell us how long food can be kept before it begins to deteriorate. All food with a shelf life of less than two (2) years must be date marked.
A use by date means the food must be eaten or thrown away by the date. After this date foods may be unsafe to eat even if they look fine because the nutrients in the food may become unstable or a build-up of bacteria may occur.
It is illegal to sell foods after a use by date. Common use by foods include milk, sliced ham and shaved meats, yoghurt, cream and dips.
A best before date means the food is still safe to eat after the date as long as it is not damaged, deteriorated or perished. A best before date simply indicates that the food may lose some of its quality after this date.
Foods can be legally sold after a best before date as long as they are not damaged, deteriorated or perished. Common best before foods include canned food, cereals, biscuits, sauces, sugar and flour.

Food handlers - skills and knowledge.
All food businesses must ensure that their staff undertaking or supervising food handling activities have: skills in food safety and hygiene and knowledge of food safety and hygiene in line with their work activities.
For example the skills and knowledge of a chef will be different from those of a wait person or kitchenhand.
How do you ensure your staff are trained to the level required?
Training can be obtained through; In-house training, providing detailed handouts, having standard operating procedures in place, ensuring that staff are aware of them and where they can be accessed, attendance at food safety training courses, completion of online training courses or hiring a training consultant to conduct training at your business.
Whatever training method you use, ensure that you retain the training information for each staff member and observe staff work practices to ensure they are demonstrating their skills and knowledge.

Cleaning, how important is it?
Cleaning in a food business is very important but more and more issues are being raised by regulatory bodies and auditors in regards to inefficient cleaning practices.
Cleaning is conducted to minimise the chance of food becoming contaminated and to discourage pests from entering the business.
A number of food businesses are doing it tough at the moment, staff are hard to find and experienced staff are even harder to find. Make sure you train your staff how to clean effectively.
Food businesses must maintain all fixtures, fittings and equipment to a standard of cleanliness where there is no accumulation of: food waste, dirt, grease or other visible matter. Don`t forget corners and crevices, dismantle equipment especially items such as blenders and robot coupes.
Good cleaning practices will not only protect the food , it demonstrates to the customers and staff that you understand the requirements of running a food business.
