Food Safety & Workplace Training in Newfoundland and Labrador

Newfoundland and Labrador food service businesses must meet requirements under the Food Premises Regulations, with guidance from Digital Government and Service NL and regional health authorities. Food Safety Academy offers WHMIS 2015 and federal workplace safety training available now — online, self-paced, with certificates on completion.

Food handler certification is launching soon. We are developing content aligned with NL food premises expectations for safe food handling and sanitation. We do not claim current government approval or provincial certification for the food handler program until it is formally recognized.

Workers in St. John's, Corner Brook, Grand Falls-Windsor, and across the province can enroll today in WHMIS and Workplace Health & Safety Awareness. The upcoming food handler course will support restaurants, fish processing, catering, and institutional food service teams.
