Document food processes and supporting procedures

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to document the operational steps in producing a processed food product and developing the procedures that support the operation.

The unit applies to individuals who are required to document processes and procedures for food processing, and who have responsibility for monitoring and maintaining product safety and quality and the production environment.

No occupational licensing or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. However, legislative and regulatory requirements for food processing exist, so local requirements must be checked. All work must comply with Australian food safety standards and relevant codes of practice.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Assessment Tasks

Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts.
