Food poisoning usually hits fast and hard. The most common signs are nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal cramps, fever, headaches and lethargy (fatigue). Symptoms can start within hours of eating contaminated food and often settle in one to three days.

Food-borne illness is one of the most preventable public health challenges in Australia. Yet, every year around 4.6 million Australians experience food poisoning, which can be largely avoided through effective food handling practices.

Serving alcohol in Australia is more than just pouring drinks. Every hospitality worker has a duty to provide responsible service of alcohol to protect customers, businesses and the wider community. That is why training is mandatory across the country.

Every year in Western Australia (WA), thousands of people suffer from food-borne illness, with the worst cases resulting in hospitalisation or even death.
