Are you a food handler

Food handlers working in SFA-licensed food establishments must be registered with SFA. Licensees can log in to GoBusiness Licensing website via CorpPass (if licence is under company) or SingPass (if licence is under individual name), search for the Licence > Action > Amend, to update details of food handlers.

SFA has launched the Food Handlers Digital DataHub (FHD2H) in April 2023.  Accessible at the following link https://fhd2hub.sfa.gov.sg, it is a platform whereby Approved Training Organisations and Food Business Operators can register the particulars of individuals who have passed the WSG Food Safety Courses (Level 1 and Level 2). Food handlers can also login to the FHD2H, to register themselves with SFA.  Individuals can use their SingPass while food business licensees can use CorpPass to access the FHD2H.

WSQ Food Safety Course Level 1

The Food and Beverage Workforce Skills Qualification (WSQ) system was launched on 12 July 2006 by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG), formerly known as the Workforce Development Agency (WDA), as the national qualifications system for the F&B industry.

SFA, together with SSG, have harmonised the training curriculum and assessment across retail and non-retail food businesses, in alignment with the refreshed SSG Skills Framework (SFw) for Food Services. With effect from 30 November 2020, the Basic Food Hygiene Course has been renamed as the WSQ Food Safety Course Level 1.

With effect from 1 January 2023, food handlers from both retail and non-retail food businesses would be required to pass WSQ Food Safety Course Level 1.
