Staff Food Hygiene & Training Record Form

A staff training record template — hygiene certificate level and training completed, signed off and kept on file.

Description

Every person who handles food needs the right training, and you need to be able to prove it. This record logs each staff member’s food hygiene certificate level, the training they’ve completed and the date, with their signature to confirm it — so your team’s competence is documented and ready to show an inspector. It captures the training that matters for a food business — allergen awareness, cross-contamination, temperature control, cleaning and personal hygiene — alongside the certificate level and an optional upload of the certificate itself. Keeping a signed record for each team member is both good practice and the evidence that your staff are trained, not just told. Use it to build a training file for every member of your team. Free, brandable, with certificate upload and a signature built in.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Staff Food Hygiene & Training Record Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

Why keep staff training records?

Because food businesses must ensure staff are trained and supervised, and be able to show it. A signed record per person is your evidence.

What training should be recorded?

Food hygiene certificate level plus the core topics — allergen awareness, cross-contamination, temperature control, cleaning and personal hygiene.

Can staff upload their certificate?

Yes — there’s an optional upload, so the certificate is stored alongside the record rather than lost in a drawer.

Why have the staff member sign?

So the record is confirmed as accurate by the person it’s about, which makes it a stronger piece of evidence.

What hygiene level do food handlers need?

Level 2 Food Hygiene is the usual standard for food handlers, with Level 3 for supervisors. The form records whatever level each person holds.

Is the template free?

Yes — free with a Fun Forms account and fully brandable.
