By completing this training, galley staff not only adhere to regulatory requirements but also play a vital role in safeguarding the health and well-being of everyone on board. Their commitment to maintaining the highest food safety and hygiene standards contributes significantly to the overall safety and comfort of maritime operations.


The Food Safety and Hygiene for Galley Staff online course is a crucial training program specifically tailored for food
handlers working in catering, particularly in the maritime industry. Its primary objective is to provide galley staff with a
foundational understanding of essential food safety and hygiene practices.
