The problem

An RSA or food handling certificate runs out the week before an inspection and nobody noticed.

FSANZ Standard 3.2.2A, in force since December 2023, means many Australian food businesses need trained staff and records to show it. Larder helps you meet and evidence that. Which parts apply depends on your food business category.

Certificates differ by state. RSA and working with children checks have different regulators and names in each state, so we set them up for the state your venue is in.

What it does

  • Lets staff photograph a certificate and enter its dates.
  • Shows owners every certificate and when it expires.
  • Records a typed name sign off, with the time and device, when a module is completed.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Staff add a certificate

    Staff open Your certificates, photograph each one and enter its dates.

    The staff certificates list on a tablet with first aid, food handler, food safety supervisor and RSA certificate rows

  2. Step 2

    Owners see what is expiring

    The certificate list shows each person, the certificate type and its date, so you can ask for a renewal in time.

    The owner certificate list on a phone showing each person, the certificate type and when it expired or needs a refresher

    2. Refresher soon

  3. Step 3

    Staff sign to confirm

    At the end of a module a new hire types their full name. Larder records when, and from which device. It is a comprehension check, not a contract.

The Stamp marks a completed module

Once the sign off is recorded, the completion screen shows the Stamp.

How it helps

For the owner

You see expiring certificates before they become a problem, and you hold a dated record that each hire confirmed their training.

For the new hire

A new hire knows which certificates to upload and what they have signed for.

Questions owners ask

Is the typed name sign off a legal signature?

No. It is a record that the person confirmed they understood the training. It is not a contract and not a legal signature.

Do state rules make a difference?

Some rules differ by state. RSA and working with children checks have different regulators and names in each state, so we set those up for the state your venue is in.
