Who is Food Safety for Delivery Drivers for?
Anyone who collects and delivers food: employed and self-employed drivers, cycle and moped riders, app-based couriers, and restaurant, takeaway or grocery staff who make deliveries.
Do delivery drivers need food hygiene training?
Food businesses must make sure anyone handling food, including during delivery, is supervised and trained in food hygiene in line with their role. This course gives drivers that training and a certificate to prove it.
Is this the same as Level 2 Food Hygiene?
No. This course focuses on what drivers and riders actually do: transporting, protecting and handing over food. If you prepare or cook food, take Level 2 Food Hygiene & Safety.
How long does the course take?
Around 45 minutes. It is fully self-paced and works on a phone, so you can pause between shifts and pick up where you left off.
When do I get my certificate?
As soon as you pass the end-of-course quiz. Your named digital certificate is ready to download straight away, and you can re-download it any time from your account. A printed copy can also be ordered. If you don't pass first time, you can retake the quiz as many times as you need at no extra cost.
Can I buy this course for my drivers?
Yes. Choose 'For my team' when you buy to get reusable seats you can assign to your drivers, with volume discounts from 5 seats.
